Hundreds of women have gathered in a garden in Dol Dol, a remote town in Kenya's windswept highlands. The garden is full of colour, because these are Masai women, most of whom wear scarlet and white necklaces like beaded ruffs and wrapped skirts in sun-bright colours. One of their chiefs, a tall man wearing a faded baseball cap, is addressing the crowd. "Do you want to go on with your action against the British army?" he asks in their language. A ripple of agreement passes through the women. This action is based on the staggering claim that, over the last 20 years, British soldiers stationed in Kenya on training exercises have been carrying out rapes against local women, and that no soldier has ever been investigated or punished for those rapes.
