Liberia barely represents Africa, and that country was invented by Americans anyway. "Freed" slaves were shipped there, likely against their will, with no linguistic or cultural ties to Africa anymore and they didn't get on with the natives there at all. Complete hell on earth that country is. I think it should be evacuated and deemed unsuitable to live in until the land is cleaned. The children should be rehabilitated and educated and the adults, well, I don't know. But Liberia should have never existed.

If that's really the case, why did so few actually leave? Just seems like if format slaves really wanted to go to Africa then people of African descent would be gone by now.
