Kenney, while living in his native Kenya, led a boycott to protest his government's treatment of his fellow farmers. He was subsequently arrested and taken into the forest to be executed. This book, told by Kenney and his lawyer Philip G. Schrag from Kenney's own perspective, tells of his near-murder, imprisonment, and torture in Kenya; his remarkable escape to the United States; and the obstacle course of ordeals and proceedings he faced as U.S. government agencies sought to deport him to Kenya. A story of courage, love, perseverance, and legal strategy, Asylum Denied brings to life the human costs associated with our immigration laws and suggests reforms that are desperately needed to help other victims of human rights violations. 606 $aImmigrants$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical refugees$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aCivil rights$zUnited States 606 $aHuman rights$zUnited States 606 $aPolitical refugees$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aImmigrants$xGovernment policy 615 0$aPolitical refugees$xGovernment policy 615 0$aCivil rights 615 0$aHuman rights 615 0$aPolitical refugees 676 $a323.6/31 676 $aB 700 $aKenney$b David Ngaruri$f1973-$01618197 701 $aSchrag$b Philip G.$f1943-$01618198 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810625403321 996 $aAsylum denied$93949794 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$28.00$u07/24/2015$5Poli
