A proud African Liberian American here supporting🥰❤❤❤. Big up to all african descendants. Most beautiful people and continent on earth to me. I love liberian and liberia 🇱🇷❤
Ignorance breeds hate - the miseducation of both Africans and African-Americans by the European Colonizer has created this ignorance. We must erase it ASAP through channels like this. Peace to our American brothers !!!
My good buddy AJ from college is a Liberian and he fit right in with us like it was nothing. No problems at all! He did everything we did. Chasing women, shit talking. The whole 9 yatds.
You'll find even a good number of Liberian's last names bearing resemblance to some AAs surnames. I was quite surprised when I first learned the history as well..
First country in Africa I visited was Liberia 🇱🇷 big ups Firestone and bucanon area ...also that is going on now the Gov are still killing ppl that’s not abiding by their new agenda, also many Africans love how we stand up to everyone that’s one thing that many have told me that we don’t hold our tongue for no one and think no one is above us many of them like that about us
It's easy for Liberians to integrate into African-American culture because the two are connected and share a common culture and history. The constitution was based off the United States. There are cities in Liberia named Greenville, Louisiana, New Georgia, Alabama Camp, and Virginia. There's a county there called Maryland County. They use the imperial system only one of three countries along with the US. So it's easy for Liberians to integrate into Black America just like it's easier for Black Americans to navigate Liberia than any other African country.
I'm from SC. Those are our closest Gullah Geechee & Jew relatives in Africa. That is the Land that was bought and paid for freed slaves by the United States government... Ain't no colonization in bought land...Americo Liberians are still the true owners.. Leaving here and going to our place on the continent makes sense. We all use the GUAP COIN..We use it in Liberia as well as the United States. We become an economic block that neither government can overlook. That alone could give us economic liberation.
Why aren't Afrodescendants of America claiming and investing in Liberia as a land we could repatriate and help our indigenous brothers develop? Liberia has a government similar to that of the United States. 🤔 I believe that we should attempt to establish a relationship with the Liberian government. Should we, why or why not?
Some Liberians, especially those that are descendents of freed slaves that returned to Liberia adjust faster to American society. Truth be told, some Liberians say those descendents of freed slaves, settled back in Liberia distinguish themselves from native African Liberians right there on Liberia, and tend to have been the ones in presidency and in economic control of Liberia. Those mostly are primarily the ones with American last names, though it's common in America to find most Liberians with European last names. That said, Liberians that are descendents of freed slaves assimilate faster into African American culture in America. Native Liberians might take more time to adjust, if ever to African American culture in America. That's what I have observed.
The settlers came with those English European names and enforce it on the natives in the name of civilizing the natives. Like you rightly said, indigenous Liberians cultures is nowhere close to African Americans nor do we have anything in common or similarity. Whoever is pushing this agenda is a culture vulture or completely lost, cus we're not pushing for anything like this nor do we care. Because the history of Liberia always been twisted with so many inaccuracies just to favor the so called settlers. But that is about to change because we're in the process of rewriting the history of our country.
@@Obsermeneh you're right. Liberia was on my High School African History syllabus in East African school. So, some of us can speak up on the History of Liberia as we know it and how it impacts Liberia of today. Proud of original African Liberians who know who they are and are proud of their identity and culture.
Well, they feel tht way about Liberians as well. We’re unruly and undisciplined, which is a constant stereotype we as Liberians are faced with in the African community at large. Which again is sad considerin we’re more socially inclined, easily assimilated, adaptable than most Africans It’s unfortunate few rotten apples, much like AA communities have created beliefs tht is afar fetch ideals from what a lot of us represent. Only becoming open minded and judgment free can help with this. You have to meet stereotypes head on by becoming friends with people you think are so diff from you and get to know them for yourself because you might be pleasantly surprised by what you discovered
@@Odiee99 Sierra Leone, ah! Thanks for the correction. Maybe I was thinking Monrovia because I'm still trying to figure out where that name comes from, huh? Peace bredren ✌🏾
Liberians are Hebrew..at least the ones who were descended from slaves.There are also native Africans in Liberia too..I used to date one 30 yrs ago..very nice female..but was native African.
There are over 1 Billion native Africans in Afrika. So don't even think about bringing a class war with the greater African family. You are basically dwarfs with your Hebrew ferytales
Please don't put your show only to AA / Africans gangstar or neighborhood integration. This will not uplift our movement to Pan Africanism. U should include or emulate Cooperations with high value Nigerians in different industries.

A proud African Liberian American here supporting🥰❤❤❤. Big up to all african descendants. Most beautiful people and continent on earth to me. I love liberian and liberia 🇱🇷❤
I love to see brothers come together one love.
Philadelphia Black Culture will do that to you. Yes Liberians in Philly are the Family no doubt. 💯
Or maybe it’s African culture that did it to Philly
@@justjules2029 Blacks been in Philadelphia since the 1600-1700's. The Foundation is already set in stone.

I do believe we AA stick together more than people think. I wanted to hear what the Brotha from Liberia had to say.
And we gone stay that way fam
@@SirJayDubyaLiberians have nun in common w us cs we didn’t all come as slaves
@jameswright2150 dem dead brothers in Chicago might disagree. That unity is a myth and only use as performative statement

Shit talking🤣
You'll find even a good number of Liberian's last names bearing resemblance to some AAs surnames. I was quite surprised when I first learned the history as well..
Because most AA names were forced on them (native). Natives had to change their traditional names to go to school in Liberia.
May Jehovah be with you my Liberian brotha.

Liberian history linked back to u.s. bro.
Two well known Liberian Americans w/ Philadelphia connections who made a name for themselves: Kimmie Weeks and Michael Blackson

You are so right.
They also have Miami Beach
THAT IS STILL BLACK AMERICANS LAND SON.
Nope incorrect
Not true

Great interview but the brother don't know his history

Some Liberians are DOS that returned to Liberia. I think that's how Freetown got it's name, because of the freed or escaped slaves that returned back.
Freetown is Sierra Leone. It's the same story though. They returned from Canada and founded Freetown.
@@Odiee99 Sierra Leone, ah! Thanks for the correction. Maybe I was thinking Monrovia because I'm still trying to figure out where that name comes from, huh? Peace bredren ✌🏾
Sierra Leone freetown was the first freetown in West Africa around the 1700's
Blk Americans have our own culture nd no it’s not easy because we are two different ppl
Its easy because liberians country was founded by freed black Americans . Why do people dont know this we live in 2023
Liberians are Hebrew..at least the ones who were descended from slaves.There are also native Africans in Liberia too..I used to date one 30 yrs ago..very nice female..but was native African.

Hi George, that dude don't know his history, he is giving misinformation to the general public.
Stop hateing
Making adjustments is very difficult.lack obedience and unnecessary arrogance.
