@AfricaInDC I’d hope that African leaders would themselves be more seized of the question. If anything, Nkrumah’s idea of regional or continental sovereign federations appears more feasible today than the 50s and 60s.

What a great way to commence the transition into 2022, from a scholarly perspective. https://t.co/Iq8rEM0S5S. I am also looking forward to finishing my first singing-author book in 2022 on Liberia’s role in the making of post-1945 multilateralism.

@AfricaInDC The chips are falling fast, given recent developments in Liberia’s recent TJ landscape. Far more Liberian actors beyond Johnson, may be persons of interest.

@AfricaInDC @academia @AfricaInDC, you’re correct about Tolbert’s ‘unheralded’ credentials as a pan-Africanist - more so than many of Liberia’s so-called “progressives” who opposed him.

@jfkollie This is my favorite part: “You can skip that mistake and pay us for showing you how…”😊. Best wishes, Senior @jfkollie .

@Ibnyei @realRODavis @AfricaInDC @liberiapp @LHRouse Liberia and Ethiopia provided much lessons learned for USAID. The organization’s history will have a gapping hole without the Liberian component.

@gyude_moore I wonder why Addis, given that the AU and the EC are already hq’d there? South Africa seems more integrated into global pharma and medical research communities that Ethiopia is.

My recent reflection on the contested legacy of Liberia’s 19th President, William V. S. Tubman. I argue that the dominant critical narrative about Tubman requires a new fresco. https://t.co/zfbeetON49

@AfricaInDC On the question of Int’l media scrutiny of the tail-end of Mrs. Sirleaf’s presidency, she certainty got off the hook quite conveniently.

[Samuel G. Toe, PhD. @SamuelGToe]

@AfricaInDC This question has until now been poorly reflected upon. Ever since Liberia’s 1986 Constitution abolished Liberia status as an immigrant nation, the room for insider/outsider exclusionary politics has only widen.

An excellent addition to the discourse on the role of cash transfer in poverty reduction in Liberia. Kudos Thomas Kaydor!👍🏽. https://t.co/tlEMEzqU4A

@AfricaInDC @embassymonrovia Can’t imagine such a policy against Liberia during the Ellen, Tolbert or Tubman’s presidencies.

@Ibnyei @Fromagehomme A constant struggle between “legitimate social causes” and ideals of societies (good governance, human rights, etc) on one hand, and the ostensibly value-neutral entity of markets.
