In the wake of Comrade Zarina Patel's passing, we mourn the loss of a fearless advocate, a tireless activist, and a true revolutionary spirit. Zarina's legacy echoes through the annals of Kenyan history, as she dedicated her life to fighting injustice, championing human rights, and preserving the environment.

As a prominent figure in the former Social Democratic Party (Marxist-Leninist), now the Communist Party of Kenya, Zarina was a former member of the central committee and also served as the party’s national treasurer until her resignation. Her commitment to Marxist-Leninist ideals never wavered. Alongside her partner, Zahid Rajan, she stood on the front lines of the struggle for social justice, democracy, and equality.

Zarina's contributions to Kenyan society are immeasurable. From her groundbreaking work in physiotherapy to her prolific writings on South Asian history, she illuminated the stories of nationalist leaders and journalists, ensuring their legacies would endure for generations to come.

Her courageous efforts to save Jeevanjee Gardens from land grabbers in 1991 epitomize her unwavering dedication to the public good. Zarina's leadership in the Asian African Heritage Trust, her role in the Ufungamano initiative for Constitutional Change, and her appointment to the Truth, Justice, and Reconciliation Commission taskforce underscore her commitment to building a more just and equitable society.

As the managing editor of AwaaZ magazine, Zarina's voice resonated far and wide, amplifying the struggles of marginalized communities and shining a light on the urgent issues of our time. Together with Zahid Rajan, she co-founded the SAMOSA Festival, providing a platform for dialogue, activism, and cultural exchange.

In her son Raahat, Zarina leaves behind a legacy of courage, compassion, and unwavering dedication to the cause of liberation. Though she may no longer walk among us, her spirit lives on in the hearts of all those who continue the fight for a better world.

Comrade Zarina Patel, rest in power. Your gallant spirit will forever inspire us to keep the flame of revolution burning bright.
