Historic Gullah Settlements

The history of the Gullah Geechee people is not merely a collection of dates, geographic coordinates, or static museum exhibits; it is an ongoing epic of absolute resilience.

The culture however, is not isolated solely along the eastern coastline. From the trail of tears to the search for freedom to the great migration, the culture moved, yet remains anchored by the people who live it everyday. Historic Gullah settlements are all over North America, which is another reason why you can never break the spirit of a people determined to keep our heritage alive.
