Liberia: Decoration Day 2007

Categories: Sub-Saharan Africa, Liberia, Arts & Culture, History

“Wednesday was Decoration Day, the day when Liberians clean and decorate the graves of their ancestors. We walked around in the Palm Grove cemetery in the late afternoon, after most people had already come and gone, and many graves were freshly repainted,” Liberia Ledger reports [1].
