its values, were imposed on a native people and laid for better and worse much of the foundation for modern kenya. it did abolish slavery, for instance. it did build a modern infrastructure. it was also completely and fundamentally exploitative, often violent and, well, racist. kenya existed to make white people from far away rich. but in 1963, kenya won its independence and elected its first president, jomo kenyatta, and since that time has fought an uphill battle to shake the last vestiges of colonial rule while hanging on to what worked. things are by most accounts going well. there is a growing middle class, a highly rated educational system and an enthusiastic and multilingual professional sector. which is to say this is decidedly not a shithole. it's dynamic, it's changing, and

employment situation. we're not going to let this stuff in anymore." what happened then? >> njeri: so america came and they told us they would have trade sanctions against us. >> anthony: if you didn't take all this used clothes. >> njeri: exactly. yeah, because of the free trade, yeah, exactly. >> anthony: that's extortion. >> melissa: it's pretty much oppressive. >> nieri: it's bullying. >> melissa: it's colonialism. >> kamau: usa! usa!

♪ >> anthony: just outside the borders of lewa conservancy is a massai village known as the il ngwesi community range. they are working with lewa to not only embrace conservation but also to maintain their way of life. >> kip: in maasai traditional way, we got our diets, which is meat, blood and milk. at least once in a while, they do blood tapping. >> anthony: to the maasai, the cow is a sacred animal.

giver of all things. unlike the west, meat is not the primary interest. here, cattle are sustainable, a long-term asset, for milk, for cheese, and on special occasions, blood. straight from the tap. >> anthony: okay, here we go. all right, well done. >> anthony: annoying as hell for the cow, no doubt, but decidedly not fatal. it might, however, prove fatal for my colleague kamau, who unlike me, has never experienced this local beverage. a warm jet of arterial blood into the gourd, add some thick, clotting milk, also from cow. shake, and down the hatch. >> kip: would you like to have a sip? >> anthony: yes. here we go.

oh, you're going to like it. and keep in mind the whole village is watching. and you are on tv. >> kamau: okay. i'm home. >> anthony: makes you strong. >> kamau: yeah. >> anthony: well done. >> kamau: thank you, thank you. >> anthony: working with the local maasai community is both an absolute necessity, and the right thing to do. to displace and forever disrupt the people who've lived here forever, in favor of animals that wealthy white people want to take pictures of would be hideous and unconscionable. this is happening elsewhere on the continent, but the people at lewa and il ngwesi are working very hard to find a better path. [ lela speaking foreign dialect ]

>> kip: he's saying the meaning of the word "il n'gwesi." it's the people who survive by hunting and gathering. [ lela speaking foreign dialect ] >> kip: and hunting wasn't what we understand of hunting today. it was hunting for survival, for food. not for business, not for selling -- >> anthony: trophies. >> kip: trophies and stuff. >> anthony: jonathan kip is a maasai chief. lela kinyaha is a maasai elder here at il ngwesi. >> anthony: was this an easy or a difficult transition?

or was it imposed from outside? >> kip: the transition first is when the poachers or the sport hunting was happening, we think it was a western idea. >> anthony: yup. >> kip: and we were not beneficiaries of it. until when an idea came from lewa and said, "well, we can turn wildlife conservation for the future of this land, conserve land for the future generations." i think they did what we say, you know, you teach a person how to fish, instead of providing them fish. so they taught us how to fish. and from there, we are not being driven by lewa anymore, or any white person, or any ngo. lewa is still a great, great neighbor. so we need each other, but we are not really dependent of each other anymore. we value the game, we value the animals, we know where we're heading to. ♪ >> anthony: and just like that, after months of drought throughout kenya -- rain. >> kamau: i was told that since i'm kamau from america, i brought the rain. >> kip: great, well done. >> anthony: giver of rain.

>> anthony: who gets to tell the stories? this is a question asked often. the answer in this case, for better or for worse, is i do. at least this time out. i do my best. i look. i listen. but in the end, i know.

it's my story, not kamau's, not kenya's or kenyans. those stories are yet to be heard. >> anthony: welcome to the enchanted, seldom-visited wonderland of asturias. that's in spain, if you didn't know. and of course because it's spain, i did not come here alone. i came here with a good friend, great chef. he's a complicated man. nobody understands him but his woman. and i'm not talking about john shaft, shut your mouth. i'm talking about jose andres. >> jose: another beer! wide! shit, and tony's w
