Summary

Description The lives and rich traditions of descendants of West African slaves who live in southern coastal regions of the eastern United States are being showcased at a museum in Washington, DC. The exhibit at the Smithsonian's Anacostia Community Museum also profiles an African American scholar whose research first connected the Gullah-Geechee people with the language and culture of their ancestors. VOA's Chris Simkins reports on efforts to educate people about the Gullah people while promoting preservation of their culture and traditions.
