>Then there are Americo-Liberians, who are descendants of free-born and formerly enslaved African Americans who arrived in Liberia from 1822 onward and Congo People (descendants of immigrants from the Caribbean), making up an estimated 5% of the population. They used to dominate political life in Liberia and still have a lot of influence.

descendants of american slavery are a very tiny proportion of the Liberian population. similar to Indian Americans in the USA.

>>214588052
post a link?

>>214588113
I don't know. I think it would be cool if there was a more significant population of american black diaspora abroad.
