EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Glimpse into the Past: Monrovia's Mesurado River and a Traditional Dugout Canoe" This evocative photograph captures the essence of Monrovia, Liberia's rich maritime history, as seen through the lens of a bygone era. Circa 1910s, this image presents a dugout canoe gliding effortlessly on the tranquil waters of the Mesurado River. The canoe, a quintessential mode of transportation for the local population, is a testament to the ingenuity and resourcefulness of the Liberian people. Monrovia, the capital city of Liberia, was founded in 1822 as a settlement for formerly enslaved Africans from the United States. The city's strategic location on the Mesurado River played a crucial role in its development, enabling trade with the hinterland and fostering a vibrant waterfront community. The dugout canoe, carved from a single tree trunk, is a symbol of the deep connection between the Liberian people and their natural environment. Its simple yet effective design has remained unchanged for generations, reflecting the resilience and adaptability of the local culture. As the sun casts a warm glow on the river, the canoe's occupants paddle serenely, their reflections shimmering on the water's surface. The lush greenery of the surrounding rainforest and the bustling activity at the waterfront add depth and context to this scene. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into Monrovia's past, transporting us back to a time when life was simpler, and the connection between people and their environment was stronger. It serves as a reminder of the enduring spirit of the Liberian people and the unique history that shaped their city.
