That fatass really went into a Liberian prison and bribed the cops to free a war criminal. Classy work from Vice. Still, have to give them credit for being interesting in this era at least, now they are absolute trash.

When Liberia was established as an ethostate for disposesed African Americans they literally adopted the U.S. a legal system and its constitution.

Wikipedia:

The Constitution of Liberia is the supreme law of the Republic of Liberia. The current constitution, which came into force on 6 January 1986, replaced the Liberian Constitution of 1847, which had been in force since the independence of Liberia. Much like the 1847 Constitution, the Constitution creates a system of government heavily modeled on the Federal Government of the United States.

This documentary is a stunning rebuttal to the tenants of civic nationalism — that all people are equal and interchangeable, genetics don't matter, and that a society depends on its founding documents.

It also suggests — lacking a miracle — E. Michael Jones's thesis that Christianity (specifically traditional Catholicism) will transform Africa into a prosperous society, with the sort of civic structures a European liberal would be happy living in, is impossible

I wish I was still teaching — This would be a great documentary to discuss in class and ask if Liberia had been settled by Japanese would it look like this or what, for example, would have happened if the country had been settled by Scandinavians. It would also be interesting to ask them what they think of Steve Sailer's most important graph; the great Bantu expansion — coming within their lifetime — showing the Sub-Saharan Africa population overtaking China to reach 4,000,000,000.

Sociology is a fascinating discipline. It is a pity that it is impossibke to discuss the interplay between genetics and the environment (blood and soil) that leads to unique cultural formation manifesting in place without being howled down by an angry mob of resentful SJWs
