Bücher von K-Moses Nagbe

The book, Charles Fannoh Young of Liberia, celebrates the life of a rural Liberian teacher--his work ethics, his sacrifices, and his love of country. He helped inspire the spirit of Western education. One of those whose lives he touched tells the Teacher Young story. In fact, overall, the story is the story of the People of Sasstown and how they came to embrace Western education and religion.

In many societies, the voice of youth is usually marginalized. Even as that voice grows louder, it is treated with either indifference or contempt. Yet, no society thrives in the full measure of progress, absent just one of many voices that must be at the table of national conversations. In this short work, Dr. Nagbe highlights the importance of the voice of youth in Liberia, focusing on student activism in especially the 1970s, running into the 1980s, the 1990s, and the 2000s. He brings his training in Child Psychology, Early Childhood Education, and even Social Psychology and Social Work to the discussion. AMANDLA! remains insightful and a quick read.

A Nation of Plenty Plenty People: The Liberian Story is a revisited history of the West African Republic that grew out of an amalgam of numerous cultural nations of Africa and Western-flavored Africans, who evolved from the TransAtlantic Slave Trade. Done in relatively simple language, the work is intended for audiences at all levels of literacy. In recent years, Dr. K-Moses Nagbe, the author, has become intensely interested in revisiting some of the historical themes--space, identity, communality, and legacy--that have continued to hold sway over the land and its peoples.
