The loss of self and place can be profound for any person or group of persons displaced by war, disasters, or natural disasters. These scars are often passed on consciously or unconsciously to their descendants. That is the story of the transatlantic slave trade. Albeit that the narrative is one of immense trauma to the human body and psychology, it is still going, however, there are mavericks in the community who have taken on the task of directing the healing of a community through storytelling.
My conversation with Akua, a former classroom teacher whose passion has gone beyond the classroom to the community. Her purpose is to bring the Gullah Geechee ( Sea Island creole ) community back to the roots. Back to their roots in the sense of learning about their past, healing their present and creating a better future for the next generation. The story of Gullah Geechee and many descendants of enslaved Africans is one of tenacity, adaptability, and sheer will to survive. The high sense of spirituality and the power of story of where they came from and where they are going. The continuity of life even in death to the homeland, Africa. This interview was one of the best interviews I have had.
