The Gullah Geechee Corridor spans multiple states throughout the southeastern U.S. and is comprised of a deep and rich history, culture, language and lifestyle. The Gullah Geechee people are the descendants of enslaved Africans who worked on rice, indigo and cotton plantations throughout the south. Being enslaved on plantations on remote coastal islands allowed for them to develop and retain a strong, deep culture that is evident in their music, food, language, artwork and more.
Luana Graves Sellars is the founder of the Lowcountry Gullah Foundation. She is an activist and preservationist, an award winning podcast host, a documentarian, a writer and more. Lowcountry Gullah raises money for Gullah heirs property and works to preserve and ptotect the Gullah culture.
