Did you know that Liberia was established by Americans opposed to slavery in the mid-1800s? It is a complicated history that fuses the slave trade with colonization and African indigenous rights. This fusion led to a civil war in the 1980s and 90s followed by the election of Africa’s first head of state in 2005. Sagamore is helping Liberia realize the promise of liberty with the dignity of self-government through the work of Donald Cassell and Travis and Gina Sheets. Read about their latest endeavor below.

Sagamore hosts an annual internship program. The 2011 summer class is pictured here with the Liberia’s ambassador to the US.
