The Liberian 🇱🇷 Realities.

3 min readJul 15, 2019

Some of you discriminate Liberians that live in the Diaspora. But, when they become a Multimillionaire or Billionaire, you start questioning, “what are they doing for Liberia 🇱🇷?” Find a place to sit down! What are you doing to stop discriminating them? What are you doing to stop the envious spirit that produced negativity due to the lack of education and the high rates of illiteracies? The crab mentality: If I na make it no one else should. SMH. I say, education, education, education. What are you doing to stop electing rogues and ex-criminals that plagued the country’s economy? What are you doing to put away child molesters? What are you doing to fight corruption, so that everyone is giving a fair chance to the top?

What are you doing to combat injustices against Liberian women? What are you doing to erase the “Negro clause” and also pass laws for Libs in the diaspora to be granted “Dual-citizenship,” so that your country could remove itself from the “dark ages” and come to modernity? What are you doing now to support Mahmud Johnson, and the rest of the other Liberian entrepreneurs, or does they have to become a success, first, before you start claiming or questioning them? That’s what FAKE looks like! You support people when they are on their way to the top, not when they get there. The mindset of people will liberate them or keep them poor forever. Wealth and success start with a mindset.
