It
is an honor and pleasure to announce the publication of our member, Dr. Morris
Koffa (Lifetime) new book ‘The Ebola Epidemic in Liberia’.
Morris
is a valued advisor on Liberia and cultural knowledge and understanding to me,
and in focusing members of BEMA International in local community issues,
capacity building, diaspora expertise for not only Liberia, but other African
Descent communities globally. Addressing environmental inequity issues in
Liberia, the continent of Africa, and other communities. Pertinent to
communities from Flint, Michigan (water contamination), to Bay View community
of San Francisco (radiological contamination), Nigeria Delta Region (oil
contamination), and other communities not brought into the light.
There
is no ‘brain drain’ from our communities, just an under-utilized,
non-interactive, or non-inclusive addition of experts from the diaspora sitting
and invited to the table, Experts that not only have the problem-solving
power, but as a collective the financial means to address the most pressing
issues from financial inequity, homelessness, education, water & food
security issues, and other social disaster\crisis\emergency management
concerns.
Looking
forward to weekend read.
Sincerely,
Charles
D. Sharp

In this maiden scholastic work, Dr.
Morris T. Koffa explores the link that runs through taking care of the
environment, addressing issues of emergency/disaster management, and creating
public health awareness.
He explains how Liberia's failure to
put appropriate infrastructures in place intensified the adverse impact of
the Ebola virus epidemic that decimated a huge number of Liberians.
This is a book whose time has really
arrived.
Read it and be inspired.
