Here are some links to the interesting Black Gullah language.The language formed from slaves. The Gullah people still have strong connections to Africa and they live in parts of S. Carolina and Georgia.

Thanks for the link Jaimia, I have been wanting to visist thee Sea Islands of S. Carolina for quite sometime. There are so many books on black history, but they often miss the simple day to day details. This is a great tool to learn the basics about the "Gullah People"

Hi Panafrica,

It's just so nice that they are still holding on to so many of the african traditions even with crafts and they are here in the US. I would also love to go there. It would be nice to here those African stories.
