A TRUE SON OF KENYA: Pio Gama Pinto was a Kenyan journalist of Indian and Goan descent, actively involved in the fight for independence. After spending four years in colonial detention, he founded the official KANU newspaper “Sauti ya KANU” in 1960. He continued his activism after independence and was sadly killed in 1965, some speculating it was a government-sanctioned assassination for his strong socialist views, while others thought it was due to his alleged communist activities throughout Africa.
Incidentally he died only 4 days after Malcolm X was assassinated. The two were well acquainted and Malcolm X considered Pinto a great influence on his worldview.
