Widespread Destruction


All over Rift Valley, we saw homes looted and destroyed alongside many other homes that were not disturbed. This selective violence was fueled by “negative tribalism,” whereby neighbors tragically turned against neighbor based on their ethnic origins. All effected tribes retaliated and so this “cleansing of foreigners” has happened all over Kenya, leaving 100,000’s homeless.
