Independence for Liberia - July 26
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Now we are celebrating OLD AGE, Not Achievements……

Some Years back a young African American man from Virginia named Joseph Jenkins Roberts declared the colony of Liberia in West Africa an independent republic on July 26, 1847. The following year he became the first elected president of the new country. Roberts moved to Liberia in 1829 at the age of twenty from Petersburg, Virginia. At this time, Liberia was a colony owned by a group of people in the United States.

Up to date, Liberia is in her 161 years OLD, we are still celebrating…..!

What have we achieved and what really make US happy when we are happy…Celebrating?

Maybe OLD AGE….hahaha, But I believe we need to check –IN and see what’s really wrong with US.

All of the countries that just got independence in the sixties, that I have been to, are by 80% better off than the OLDEST in Africa……what is our JOY?

FOOD FOR Thought….our Assignment???????

Welcome friends of Liberia…..Let’s Celebrate..!

The power of one voice
Commerce with a concience: Can we acheive it Yes we can. When we educate everyone, join me in being that voice. Read my book titled "Begin Again" by Andrea Donatellli. It is an easy read which covers many topics including how we can have sustainable economics for all . It also addresses issuses on Africa being used as a target of advantage and how we can solve that problem.
Book is available online at all book oulets
