gullah

Even if they have their language, are the Gullah still the Gullah if you remove them from their diet and usual place of livelihood?

Rewatching what I watched as a kid at these ages(Barney, Sesame Street, Gullah Gullah island) with my kids definitely shines a light on that.

As someone fascinated by all creole languages and cultures, especially micro regional ones, Gullah is a forgotten and rich gem.

Being religious and traditionalist, and even believing in bootstraps more than government, makes Thomas a typical member of his Gullah community.

They speak French in Louisiana, German in Amish Country, Gullah in North Carolina...

I was recently at an event where a historian/community advocate from the Gullah community in Georgia was invited to speak.

Historically, two cases of rushed vaccines (cutter polio and Gullah barre) were worse than the disease - and these were for diseases worse than covid.

The Gullah people are American, not an expat community.

It’s actual roots in the African diaspora and the Caribbean, and there are entire communities, like the Gullah of the Carolinian coasts, that have preserved their culture and language since the diaspora began.

Whereas, I can name very few varieties of English that aren't easily mutually intelligible with basically all of the rest of the English-speaking world - patois and gullah, for example.

Prior to Fraser kicking off the island as we know it in the '50s, it was basically just a handful of Freedmen farmers, Gullah natives and a rather large hunting reserve for the rich.

Of course it shouldn't have surprised anyone that a Gullah speaker would share Thomas's social views, or care more that "he's a Gullah like me" than about their respective roles in white politics.

I have no idea what you meant by "Gullah barre" the Google results I get are all about Guillain-Barré syndrome, which I mentioned above.

But "Historically, two cases of rushed vaccines (cutter polio and Gullah barre) were worse than the disease - and these were for diseases worse than covid" is just not.

Gullah culture isn’t Anglo-Saxon, nor is the creole language and culture practiced around New Orleans and Louisiana.

Gullah Geechee black nationalism is typical of a Southern black man?

My mum helps with rescue birds sometimes and now has a Gullah, which for anyone familiar is a pink/white cockatoo very similar to a sulfur-crested cockatoo.
