Web site profiles American emigration to Liberia
Building on years of research and two published books, a Penn State Harrisburg faculty member has created a web site dedicated to profiling the historic African American emigration to Liberia.
Associate Professor of Communications and Humanities C. Patrick Burrowes unveiled his interactive web site entitled “Like a Motherless Child: African American Emigrants to Liberia, 1820-1904” as part of a presentation to faculty, staff, and students recently in the Gallery Lounge. Taken from the title of the well-known spiritual, “Like a motherless child expresses the overriding feeling of dispossession and alienation felt by the emigrants,” Burrowes says. Many of them former slaves, “they had no mother and they had no homeland,” he adds.
