“Those who have no record of what their forebears have accomplished lose the inspiration which comes from the teaching of biography and history.”
“If a race has no history, if it has no worthwhile tradition, it becomes a negligible factor in the thought of the world, and it stands in danger of being exterminated.”
Queen Quet, Chieftess of the Gullah/Geechee Nation (www.QueenQuet.com) and hostess of the official radio station of the Gullah/Geechee Nation, Gullah/Geechee Riddim Radio, continues to insure that the history of her forebears is written and told. She began the annual on air “Black History/African Heritage Month” celebration with Living Black History-Celebrating Gullah/Geechee Cultural Heritage Legacy. Tune in to hear her discuss the 100th year of the celebration founded by Dr. Carter G. Woodson and how the Gullah/Geechee cultural heritage embodies this. Also, learn the on-going efforts to keep Gullah/Geechee culture alive in the face of climate change, sea level rise, and the threat of offshore drilling and other environmental injustices which threaten the protection of cultural heritage treasures and have negative impacts on the quality of life in the Gullah/Geechee Nation.
