Some had been born in the United States and considered it to be their home.

The african Americans opposed American colonization society's plan to migrate to Africa because most of them they were born there and that is where they referred as home.

Robert Finley is the one who introduced the group of American colonization society.

The purpose of the group was to support free migration of African Americans to Africa continent.

Most of the blacks who faced restrictions by us they migrated to Liberia.
