“Liberia’s forgotten champions” The Liberian national team won the 2008 Amputee African Cup of Nations and members from the team were selected as the tournament’s most valuable player and best goalkeeper. Many of the players are former combatants of Liberia’s civil war desperately in need of a boost, and their success initially brought them fame and glory. However, their good times were short-lived: many players have since resumed lives of deprivation in extreme poverty. Many of them are homeless, and neither the government nor the amputee football league federation helps them. Amputee football players, (from the left) Chris Dweh Scott, Adwin Sambola and Oliver Blegay, play during a scrimmage in Monrovia, Liberia on May 2, 2008.

solitaryforager: liberationfrequency: “Unfortunately, education at present is aimed at making you conform, fit into and adjust yourself to this acquisitive society. That is all your parents, your teachers and your books are concerned with. As long as you conform, as long as you are ambitious, acquisitive, corrupting and destroying others in the pursuit of position and power, you are considered a respectable citizen. You are educated to fit into society; but that is not education, it is merely a process which conditions you to conform to a pattern. The real function of education is not to turn you out to be a clerk, or a judge, or a prime minister, but to help you understand the whole structure of this rotten society and allow you to grow in freedom, so that you will break away and create a different society, a new world. There must be those who are in revolt, not partially but totally in revolt against the old, for it is only such people who can create a new world — a world not based on acquisitiveness, on power and prestige. — J. Krishnamurti, Think On These Things R.I.P liberationfrequency
