Publisher's Synopsis
Following on from his previous work, Being Oromo in Kenya, Mario Aguilar stresses the conflict and creativity expressed by different Oromo generations who treasure their Oromo identity but are also searching for their place within a post-colonial and post-independent East African world. Thus, the featured essays not only provide creative ways of researching identity but also assert the central role of Oromo culture within the ever-changing world of East African religion and politics.
