Watch this Film. It is 20 minutes long.
So Sad!
Listen to the voices, feel their pain, hear the experiences of some Liberian Women who were victimized by the terrible war in Liberia.

What would you all want for Liberian/African women?

What are your wishes? Dont give me anything cliche, just what your deepest feelings are.
