Tribute by Mtumishi Njeru Kathangu*
April 24, 2021
Karin Steffensen, was a warrior among us. She did great things silently and supported the social movement without vetting herself or the organisation and the Embassy she worked for.
She went out of her way to convince them on the importance of an alternative thought in Kenya's political realm. She did it, willingly, lovingly and concerned about our safety and future. For this, I am a witness.
I know many who she held as committed partners in the movement including my friend Gvnr. Kivutha Kibwana and quite a few others in leadership.
She deserves our recognition and honour. Let us keep her in our memories.
Rest in eternal Peace Karin.
