Zambia Independence and Beyond

Abstract

DR KENNETH KAUNDA'S career as a nationalist leader is by now well-known. An important part of it is related in his autobiography, zambia Shall be Free while Richard Hall has amplified it in zambia. Less well known is his role as a national leader with a special commitment to founding a non-racial society in a country which forms a tense frontier between the areas of independent African government and white supremacy. The speeches and writings of Dr Kaunda collected here cover the crucial years from the time he joined government in December 1962 to the opening days of 1966.
