I agree with the gentleman who said the island was their birthright. Their ancestors died in the fields there; the land should rightfully be theirs, without fear of getting “taxed out” of their properties.
I really enjoyed this video. I was born in Liberia we are the relatives of the Gullah-Geechee Tribal people. We are known as the Gola Tribe in Liberia, I am very proud to learn and know more about our people....
We are part of The 12 Tribes of Israel. Our Identity was stolen. Yahushua is his orgainal name not "Hail Zeus". Every Nation enslaved us. Read your bible. 10 Commandments Sabbath not Sunday. Know the truth. No more. Pagan
Elder Martinez, WOW! lol! Would you believe I was just say just yesterday as I was watching a Liberia video that those Black Americans they sent back and those Liberian Natives sure made an interesting Southern and African dialect mixed together.
Gives me chills to see that ocean and listen to her speak of how the slaves ships sat out in the water and they would unload our ancestors onto smaller flat bottomed boats. It makes it more real to me. Heartbreaking but it is our history. We are the ancestors of the strong survivors of chattel slavery and I'm proud of my people. Hurt and angry that this happened to them, but proud nonetheless.
Seven people died this weekend after the gangway collapsed at a Gullah Geechee event here. Seven is a significant number & this has been spiritual year.
Gullahs freed the slaves. Congress said they need to free the slaves or they will destroy us after losing the battle with the Gullah where over 1000 white armymen navymen were defeated by just 400 Gullahs .
That's not exactly right and I am Gullah. Yes it helped towards freedom, but freedom did not come right away. Sorry but the rumor's of the internet are misleading.
Damn this woman looks the exact same in that Vice video as she does in this video which is done 14 years prior. Like the EXACT SAME. Black really don’t crack 😩
We are Global Indigenous people!! Love and Unity is the best key for us all together!!💯 Also Giving thanks to the Great Mother's/Goddesses and Great Father's/Gods and the Ancestors and Guardians!! Saying from Snefer aka Bashiyr!!👸🏿🤴🏿
To my Gullah/Geechees... The name Gullah is in the Strong's Bible dictionary as a Hebrew name on the Hebrew section 1353 (Please look this up for yourselves) . Yah'll (we) are Hebrews. Our names were not mis-pronounced as Angola or Golas although some of our ancestors were from there. Geechees are the Yamasee or Yahmassee (Yah) (Yahweh) who were also Hebrews (Maroons, Guale, Yamacraw, Creek Aborigines) Cum-by-Yah, Ah-ha-Yah, We-Ben-Yah (We Son of Yah), Hallelu-Yah
@Ja'Net Nixon AHA (YAH)? All in English words? Hmmmmmm... The point is that the word Gullah is Hebrew because were are Hebrews. We are a mix of Gullah and Geechee people that been here and is not going no where.
Loving this one thanks for sharing very information blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
The developers are extremely disrespectful to the descendants of those that were buried in that historical cemetery to feed their greed. The ancestors spirit are raging war.
Searching for a genuine background for their Porgy & Bess in 1934, the Gershwin brothers spent 2 wks on a small island, 10 mi. From Charleston: for the rhythm & music of the simple Gullah peasants there. “Their complicated pattern of a rhythm beaten out by feet and hands-their “shout”, a source of pride. I’ll never forget a night when George joined in, and to their huge delight, stole the show from their champion “shouter”. I think he was the only white man who could have done it.” DuBois Heyward (fr. Kimball & Simon.The Gershwins (1973), p 174. (Thank you for letting me see this, for myself.) [Now in 12 Amer.

The great triangle people Africa via Barbados then the America, 90% of the slave ships went to Barbados, that,s why the queen went to Barbados to do research, look at the last names, the geechee culture are in BARBADOS, however, these people never knew that Barbados was home of their ANCESTOR. THE DRAYHALL PLANTAtION, yeamans, cooper's gibbs all the nasty slave owners brought the geechee from barbados
Nice informative video. Too bad that African peoples don't seem to be at a rush to learn what happened to the so called "stolen" brethren from the mother land. If it had not been for American indigenous reaching out, oh well.
I love their culture but they need to make sure they don’t tell every child that our ancestors was from Africa or slaves. Only about 10-15% of melanated people were brung from Africa to America. That wight man story dat we was all in Africa is a lie. We were always here and it’s so much proof we been here. Our land got took from us. The original people (so call black people) indigenous to the whole world. The word slave comes from da word slavic which were white slaves. Black people had white slaves (slavs) in America way before Christopher Columbus. Check out books like the sultan of America - the Moroccan treaties with various European crowns. My ancestors are Cherokee and creek.
Ask the Obamas, to champion your historic cause. Why not Immediately recruit them to champion your noble cause? And have this first & foremost, in tv and biggest newspapers. Add to this eloquent ABC video, the words Stanley and Cornelia left ringing in our ears, & hearts.
Why is gullah geechee people so mean I use to ask myself because my mother was geechee and her parents so mean I see why slavery !But it seem like with us being born in NYC why take that hatred out on us on your children ? I have found that geechee people related or not are full of hatefulness in my own family in SC they made me feel like a outsider is it because I'm not Geechee and I'm from the north ?
The Gullah are from the Caribbean they were transported from Africa to the Caribbean then on to the southern states of America their culture is very Caribbean and they look more Caribbean than African American ....

We Liberians are the relatives of these people. We speak almost the same way and the same kind of black.

Black Americans they sent back and those Liberian Natives sure made an interesting Southern and African dialect mixed together.
Whenever I hear the language' it sounds like Patois. I am fascinated by the culture of the Gullah culture.
Gullah people are also native Americans it’s weird they are very interesting people
@@theostrogon9172 they are not native Americans they are african
We are both actually! 🖤💙💚💛
Blessings to Queen Quet she is a woman of conviction and sees her mission clearly. God speed to her always

They don’t care. It’s not their culture or heritage.
All this development happening around us, there needs to be a line drawn, we must preserve our heritage before disappears for good.
