In 1989, 1998, and 2005, 15 Gullah speakers went to Sierra Leone and other parts of West Africa to trace their origins and ancestry. Their journey frames this exploration of the extraordinary history of the Gullah culture, which is described in this fascinating book. Since long before the American Revolution, America has had hidden pockets of a bygone African culture with a language of its own, and long endowed with traditions, language, design, medicine, agriculture, fishing, hunting, weaving, and the arts. This book explores the Gullah culture's direct link to Africa, via the sea islands of the American southeast. Today, there are more than 300,000 Gullah people, many of whom speak little or no English. "Gullah Culture in America" explores not only the history of Gullah, but takes the reader behind the scenes of Gullah culture today to show what it is like to grow up, live, and celebrate in this remarkable and uniquely American community.
