The Bassa tribe in Liberia has been mislabeled for selling their land for

smoked fish, but the actual story is that Captain Robert F. Stockton

coerced or forced the tribe at gunpoint to sell the land. Threatening to

kill the king in front of his people. This historical narrative wasn't

taught in school, as I am narrating to this generation of Liberians and

Americans today.
