The Liberians: An Introduction to their History and Culture

CORC-9698LIB

Category(s):
Refugee Resources

Publisher(s):
Center for Applied Linguistics, Cultural Orientation Resource Center

Author(s):
Robin Dunn-Marcos, Konia T. Kollehlon, Bernard Ngovo, and Emily Russ

Year: 2005

This profile provides general information about Liberians—their history, culture, language, and resettlement experiences—as well as information about the new arrivals in particular. The profile is intended primarily for service providers who will be assisting the refugees in their new communities in the United States. But others may find it useful, too. Teachers may use it to educate students about a people whose history is so closely intertwined with that of the United States. Local government agencies—the courts, the police, the housing and health departments—may use it to help their staff better understand, and thus better serve, the new arrivals. (74pp)
