Famous Henry Johnson Jr Quotes

“If you look at the – freedom, democracy, equality, liberty– all of that can be qualified by saying, "What about me? What about us?" The idea of my tribe versus your tribe, etc. Freedom – what about Liberians who have been oppressed by the systems? Equality – what about institutional "Black-on-Black Apartheid?”What about the creators of the flawed systems who are now so-called liberators of the people?" What about the Americos versus the Natives, while disregarding the symptoms of the problems? What about your party versus my party, constantly at war, and are not focused on the issues? Justice? How about “give me liberty or give me death?” Until then, the unsolved queries remain in Liberia's delusional political arenas. Until then, we'll never have a country without truths!!”

“The future of Liberia belongs to citizens, who see wrong and speak against it because what does not affect you, affect others. The future of Liberia belongs to "patriots" who preach "CHANGE" and are not merely moved by money or in the closet deals to surround themselves with the same people who are part of the system. The future of Liberia belongs to the market, who don't anything but have managed to cope with the hard times. The future of Liberia belongs to Liberians, who had been fed "DEMOCRACY" and have come to accept it, even when what is written in the book doesn't work for "all" voices but individual voices who are well connected and protected to speak. The future of Liberia is at a crossroad.”
