There are a lot of positive factors that the colonial government and establishment helped bring to Kenya, such as

# Education.

# Health Institutions.

# Introduced modern day government institution.

Just but to mention a few.

On the other hand there are a few negative aspects that the colonial government established and continue to undermine Kenya up to date. For instance

# Introduced the divide and rule strategy that was later adopted by succeeding government.

# Enacted self centered policies to safeguard their interests, such as land policies that later increased tribal hostilities.

Just to mention a few.

What were the negative effects of colonialism in kenya?

Colonialism is a political and economic system set up to benefit the colonizers, not the indigenous people. Wast wealth and labor are extracted from the colonized lands and peoples but very little is returned. The net result is that the people and land is impoverished, and non democratic regimes set up are inherently corrupt and cannot rule the land for the benefit of the people.Colonialism also destroys the indigenous culture; it is systematically destroyed or degraded in favor of the colonizing culture, which is not necessarily suited for the conquered people.A society based on exploitation and opposed to democracy is destructive to any peoples.


What is post colonialism and how does derek walcotts poertry respond to it?

Postcolonialism, found in literature, film, etc., is a response to colonialism and its effects. Derek Walcott experienced colonialism in St. Lucia, where he grew up. His poetry expresses his attitude towards it because on the one hand he saw the negative effects of it and on the other hand he reaped the benefits of it. In this way many of his poems show this conflict between feeling sorrow for the fate of the island and showing understanding of the benefits of colonialism.
