Port Cresson massacre
[edit]- ... that the African-American settlers at Port Cresson were pacifist Quakers who were unequipped to defend themselves when attacked by King Joe?

- New enough, long enough. Meets guidelines for content (citations, etc.) I had to dig in the sources to find support for the hook, but found this "Because of their Quaker pacifism, the settlers were unprepared to resist the attack." in the Historical Dictionary of Liberia. And the attacking leader is called "King Joe" in other sources. So no problems with the hook. QPQ done, so I believe this one is good to go.
