Africa-Press – Liberia. <\/strong><\/span>The U.S. Congressional delegation to Liberia led by Representative Gregory W. Meeks, Chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, on Monday, Feb. 21, visited Providence Island and Providence Baptist Church to commemorate the historic relationship between the United States and Liberia.<\/p>\n

Representative Meeks, who represents a congressional district in New York, was joined by Representatives Ami Bera of California, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, Joyce Beatty of Ohio, G.K. Butterfield of North Carolina, Brenda Lawrence of Michigan, and Troy Carter of Louisiana.<\/p>\n

The delegation is also visiting Sierra Leone, C\u00f4te d\u2019Ivoire, and Tanzania during their trip.<\/p>\n

The first Black American immigrants who arrived in the land that is now the Republic of Liberia first settled on Providence Island, then called Dozoa, 200 years ago. Led by Ministry of Information, Cultural Affairs and Tourism guide Ambrose Wiagbe and the Historical Society of Liberia\u2019s Dr. Bill Allen, the delegation toured the historical landmark. They took the opportunity to commemorate the bicentennial anniversary of this seminal event in Liberian history by walking in the footsteps of those first American immigrants and tossing flowers into the Mesurado River as a symbol of remembrance. Members of the delegation spoke about the power of just being physically on the island and the potential it has to become a global tourist destination.<\/p>\n

After Providence Island, the delegation visited Providence Baptist Church, one of the three historic Liberian churches founded by the American immigrants and the location of the signing of the Liberian Declaration of Independence on July 26, 1847. Rev. Dr. Samuel Reeves, the senior pastor of Providence Baptist Church, led a program that included the two other historic churches \u2013 First Presbyterian Church and First United Methodist Church \u2013 representatives from the Inter-religious Council of Liberia, a reading of the names of the American immigrants who departed New York City for West Africa on the Elizabeth in 1820, and a stirring rendition of the African American spiritual song \u201cSwing Low, Sweet Chariot\u201d by Rev. Laura Pritchard.<\/p>\n

The National Archives of Liberia, led by Director General Emmanuel Lomax, displayed the original 1847 Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of Liberia within the church as well.<\/p>\n

Ambassador Michael McCarthy was moved by the presence of the historic documents, \u201cIt is breathtaking to think how old and sacred these documents are.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chairman Meeks spoke passionately about the impression being able to visit Providence Island and Providence Baptist Church was having on the delegation, \u201cThe role that Liberia has played in history.<\/p>\n

Those that began the slave trade never dreamt that a group of individuals that they had taken to America in slavery\u2026 That 88 of them would fight for their freedom and run away from slavery in America to start a country right here \u2026 And so the connections that we have\u2026 the oceans that used to divide us\u2026 do not divide us anymore. And it was led by those 88 people coming and working with those that were indigenous to this land, coming together.\u201d<\/p>\n

During their visit, the U.S. Congressional delegation also met with President George Weah and the Cabinet at the Executive Mansion, joined a roundtable of civil society organizations and government oversight offices to gain a perspective on key challenges related to transparency and accountability in Liberia, and engaged with their Liberian congressional counterparts at a reception hosted by Ambassador McCarthy.<\/p>\n
