Kukatonon

The Liberian Civil War (1989–2003) claimed the lives of an estimated 250,000 people and displaced over a million more. Entire communities were torn apart, families separated, and countless lives cut short.

Kukatonon is a memorial platform dedicated to preserving the memories of those we lost. Through stories shared by survivors, family members, and community members, we seek to ensure that no life is forgotten and no sacrifice goes unrecognized.

“Until the story of the hunt is told by the lion, the tale of the hunt will always glorify the hunter.”

Our Mission

We believe that remembering is the first step toward healing. Kukatonon provides a dignified space where:

• Victims are honored through stories shared by those who knew them
• Communities can collectively grieve and remember
• Future generations can learn about the true cost of conflict
• The nation can move forward through acknowledgment and truth

The Inaugural Walk to Remember

On April 4, 2026, we are holding the Inaugural Kukatonon Walk to Remember — a memorial walk from the Du Port Road Massacre Memorial to the Paynesville City Hall Grounds (Liberian Learning Center).

The walk begins at 7:00 AM, followed by a Remembrance Ceremony at 10:00 AM. This is a national act of memory, healing, and collective responsibility.
