Asylum Denied is the gripping story of political refugee David Ngaruri Kenney's harrowing odyssey through the
world of immigration processing in the United States. Kenney, while living in his native Kenya, led a boycott to
protest his government's treatment of his fellow farmers. He was subsequently arrested and taken into the forest
to be executed. This book, told by Kenney and his lawyer Philip G. Schrag from Kenney's own perspective, tells
of his near-murder, imprisonment, and torture in Kenya; his remarkable escape to the United States; and the obstacle
course of ordeals and proceedings he faced as U.S. government agencies sought to deport him to Kenya. A story of
courage, love, perseverance, and legal strategy, Asylum Denied brings to life the human costs associated with our
immigration laws and suggests reforms that are desperately needed to help other victims of human rights violations.
