Masidza Sande Galavu

Creative Director Masidza Galavu at the Shujaa Stories exhibition, the National Museums of Kenya.

Shujaa Stories is the brain child of Masidza Sande Galavu (January 6, 1993 - February 11, 2020). The project had a special meaning to Masidza who was himself a lupus warrior.

“It all began when I and Jeff Muchina (friend and colleague) visited Kenya's incredible historical sites. We were blown away. There's so much history that Kenyans don’t know and is not being taught in schools. In 2017 Shujaa Stories was born with a goal to unmask the history of the told and untold Shujaas of pre-independence time. The illustrations are done in a superhero and fantasy way so as to attract the younger generation."
