Monrovia- Each time we remember the atrocities of war, we prick the conscience of the perpetrators, thereby ensuring that it does not happen again. To ignore or forget is to set them loose, thereby cultivating a cycle of impunity.
I witnessed the Liberian Civil war not as a passive and privileged commentator, but as a child who lived through the burnt and ashes of war, endured the nightmares and have a scar of honor as a war survivor. In 1990, we were enroute to the St. Peter’s Lutheran Church (our family parish) for refuge, but stayed one night short of our journey when soldiers of the Armed Forces of Liberia stormed the edifice under the cover of darkness and committed one of the most heinous atrocities recorded in our nation’s history.
