Perpetuating the memory of participants in the national liberation movement of 1916 is an important process in any period of the country's historical development. The name of Amangeldy, which opened a new page in the history of Kazakhstan, is associated with the most important turns in the fate of the people: the struggle for land, opposition to external enemies, protection of freedom and independence of the state, significant political and cultural achievements. The leader of the national liberation uprising of 1916, Amangeldy Imanov, was an active participant in the struggle against the tsarist regime and punitive detachments.

Since 1913, Amangeldy became a subscriber to the magazine " Aikap "and the newspaper"Kazak". Even before the Amangeldy uprising, Imanov was known in the steppe as a champion of people's freedom, an opponent of the colonial regime.

She told about interesting exhibits and the life of the great batyr. The exhibition featured photographs and archival documents about the events in the steppe caused by the tsar's decree on conscription for rear work.
