A rich potpourri of articles and paintings on Gullah art, history, fiction, recipes, and language along with social commentary which clarifies the struggle for cultural survival mounted over time by this most African of African American cultures. A voyage of the soul to African Americans' American roots!
I learned a lot of valuable information and enjoyed the vignettes/poetry. I was doing my own research regarding my culture’s history and there’s a lot that I forgot I was told that was brought up with this book and got to talk about it and continue to talk about it with my family. I especially like the expansion and semantic change from “development” to “destructionment,” same with the terminology explanation of Seminole. Thank you.
