Djogbachiachuwa: the Liberian Anthology

Djogbachiachuwa is an attempt by the Liberian Literature Project 2012 setforth by the Liberian History, Education & Development, Inc. (LIHEDE)to close this literary gap. It is also an attempt to have the rest of the worldto read more of Liberian literature through the eyes of Liberians otherthan themselves.

It is believed that people who do not know their ownhistory, culture or language have nothing of worth and beauty to pass on tosuccessive generations, and is thus doomed and condemned to perpetualwarfare and poverty.

The Liberian Literature Anthology Project 2012 isan endeavor to depart from this self-defeating historical trend to producean Anthology of Liberian literature that draws on the tradition of eachethnic subgroup in Liberia.
