Why Do I Give a F&$k about the Gullah Geechee, hanging trees, and pineapples?

J and Diane share more about their time in Charleston, especially focused on the Gullah Geechee tour they took with Chief Godfrey Khill of Gullah Geechee Tours and the history that lies in plain sight that is not seen by so many. They talk about visiting one particular space at the memorial of the 36 souls whose remains were found at the excavation for the Gaillard Auditorium in Charleston. The Anson Street African Burial Ground Project resulted in a memorial fountain where J and Diane read poetry written by Diane and J's daughter Jade A. Thompson titled "Freedom in Eternal Rest" and "Eternal Rest in Freedom" respectively. It was a very powerful moment that Godfrey captured, and they are happy to share it with you.  #Charleston #AnsonStreetAfricanBurialGround #AnsonStreetAfricanBurialGroundProject #history #GullahGeecheeTours #ydigafpodcast #podcastontheroad
