My pimping career started on Broad street.

Thanks for the info

I lived in Liberia in the mid 1980's so this video was a real trip down memory lane. Thank you so much. The corner of Gurley and Broad in 1984 for a white 23 year old American was a blast! It is so sad what happen to that country though I saw a preview of the brutality in the 1985 coup attempt.

Hi wmhoad,

Thanks for your kind remark on my video.

I got more video of Liberia but i'm still looking for the right format because i'm not happy about the quality as shown on the internet (Blury picture etc. )

I'm a 47 year old security officer living in the Netherlands close to Amsterdam.

For the last 5 years i went to Liberia to visit friends and family and once you went there you have to come back.

S you

Alex

Thank you for posting. Our spirit is not broken simply because the roads are. Home is home and though it may be scarred, we still love it.

Monrovia is a beautiful city, I am impressed with the wide two lane streets
