So I decided to do another this year, highlighting more Made In Liberia products that I have personally sampled as well as others tried by friends who positively reviewed them. As we go into the holiday season, I urge all to please be deliberate…

Made In Liberia Products - 2020
Made In Liberia Products – 2020
In 2020, I was more deliberate about trying out products made in Liberia, especially products made by “new” Liberian entrepreneurs and of the many I explored this year, these are my top picks in no particular order-  and why. Ginger Anana by Veda Ajavon I grew up sipping ginger beer made by my grand mother. There aren’t many ginger drinks options and usually the canned imported ones are just…

A Typical Day In The Life Of A Liberian Doctor
A Typical Day In The Life Of A Liberian Doctor
Written by: Deddeh E. P. Supuwood, MD.
Everyday we hear all around us that quality healthcare delivery in Liberia is lacking and it is not a fantasy, neither can it be over-emphasized. As health care workers in Liberia, we face the challenges of coming in contact with patients that are in need of so many things but are compelled to watch helplessly as we offer very minimum or no service at…

Why?
She is still a baby And forced to have a baby Innocence stolen Childhood forgotten Forever
Whilst no fault of hers She, is called “a liar” By her mother Defiled by her father A child’s trust, and body, thrown asunder Replaced by lifelong guilt and shame To shield behind a veil Of lasting disgrace To deal with in a society Judging so unfairly Harshly Uncaringly
How can our society be so…

Stolen Childhood- Movie Production
Stolen Childhood- Movie Production
One of the truths of human experiences is the possibility to use pain to both inspire and empower.
For thirty years, I lived as a victim with the pain and trauma of child sexual abuse. I was scared to even talk about it, shelved it in my mind from where it haunts me, and found a way to skirt around the shame.
All of that was until I looked into the eyes of my daughter as she celebrated her eighth…

I have decided to use my blog to share my thoughts on the story…

After nearly two years of back and forth, we have finally been able to complete the installation of a solar power system at the June Moore Public School. This means we can FINALLY start our computer literacy classes with kids at the school- just in time for the school break! The success on the final leg of this installation comes after the PTA of the school stepped in to enhance enforcement of security for the panels and equipment so that there isnt extra cost to the school or KEEP. Yaay! Talk about partnership! next up- sign kids up for the classes
