Liberia has a strong connection to the United States in that it was
founded by former slaves in 1822. Although Liberia had existed as
an independent African nation and a symbol of hope to the African
peoples under the rule of various colonial powers, its recent
history has been bedeviled by a prolonged upheaval following a
military coup d'etat in 1980. In this context, the narrative
highlights the distinctiveness of Liberians in their negotiation of
traditional indigenous and modern practices, and the changes
wrought by Christianity and Western influences.
