Father Zanotelli, an Italian missionary priest, served for many years among the poorest of the poor in a slum in Nairobi. Eventually, he felt “commissioned” by these people to minister and evangelize the members of his “White Tribe,” in order to open their eyes to the history of oppression perpetrated by their European ancestors and continued into the present day—through racism, colonialism, exploitation, and treating the poor world as unworthy of respect or care. In this book he sets out do that.
