Summary

In 1822, a group of ex-slaves and freeborn African Americans leave to settle in West Africa and found Liberia. Against a backdrop of French and British colonialists, and tribes unashamedly trading in human bondage, the hopes and dreams of the newly arrived become entangled in the reality of building a new life in a foreign land. It is not the "home" they had dreamed of returning to.
