Kenyans take to the streets to mark one year since deadly anti-tax protests

The World

Demonstrations in Kenya mark the one-year anniversary of anti-tax protests that left 60 people dead; others remain missing. They come on the heels of last week’s protests against police brutality in the country. Awino Okech told The World’s Host Carolyn Beeler that the protesters have more than one grievance with the government. She’s a professor at the University of London in the UK and has been following the events in Kenya.
