This would have been shown in British cinemas before the main movie back then. Back in those days most Brits still spent their vacation time within 50 miles of where they lived as a local seas side resort, about 30% of wealthier Brits were starting to holiday in continental Europe but only a very small number of the wealthiest or more adventurous could afford to visit Kenya so this was the only way many Brits could see the wider world.
Mm. There were some advantages to having a white presence in the likes of Kenya. I shy away from using white rule or colonial rule. Whites brought a degree of industry, mechanisation, farming experience, employment, housing marketing and quiet a lot of other advantages. Native population wanted to have the colonial presence eliminated, and return to playing drums and dancing. Trouble is ,,, singing, dancing, and playing drums doesn't put food on the table nor clothes on the back. Goodbye
@@themadfarmer5207 Haha. Here comes the close minded one who skipped over the concentration camps, torture, dispossession of land, mass rape, starvation and all other crimes. Your foolish grandfather together with you just wanted to dance!? Others had serious grievances. What industries did the whites leave here? All your points are garbage.
@@themadfarmer5207 So everything they „brought“ to us is worth millions of lives being killed by idiots??? In kenya we had a functioning economy, of course it didn’t look like Europe but it didn’t need to, Europeans were always trying to spread their „culture“ and it wasn’t on favor of the Africans, rather the Europeans could live in the african land
My Magical country , thank you for keeping our history in films and now on TH-cam

@@TheGiantKillers This is wonderful. I didn't think it was then expensive for Brits to visit Kenya or even settle here.
Kenya is beautiful 😍long live 🇰🇪
Glad to see that Kenya has been successful in protecting its diverse and rich wildlife to date.

Imagine MAGICAL KENYA even cannot describe Kenya like this....in 2022..
This was 1961....We need lot of training for our people
Magical Kenya.... Wow.
Making wonderful videos on foreign land
Amazing to think that the very sight of Africa was only made possible by the invention of the camera.
Or you could just visit you know? Lol
@@mandalaqueen828 before the comersial airplanes? Not a chance
U do not have this now😢
Amazing documentary
Kenya beautifl
The official story is that Kenya and all ex British colonies thrived much better after independence. The truth is the opposite.
The British robbed them dry. They never left skills.

Shut up monster
@@ryuk3950he's right, it was both a blessing and a curse.
Today's Nairobi is a pity..So disorderly, dirty,noisy, Politics have destroyed this beauty recorded 60 years ago😢😢😢😢😢
Our fight for independence was premature, it ruined the original Kenya. I wish I was alive during this time
@Can't mossad the Assad Yeah sure. A totally illiterate population living in diseased and overcrowded concentration camps was definitely better?

Of course. Don’t you realize what they went through? Many of them lost their loved ones, their land in the hands of the colonizers.
Glad this guruwes left
