The Gullah Laundry
This creatively decorated coin laundry
makes washing/drying clothes seem not so
dreary. With photos of Scarlett & Rhett
and scenes from 'Gone with the Wind' you
will know you are truly in the 'Old
South.' It also hints of the
contribution enslaved blacks made in
helping build the wealth and beauty of
this long ago peroid. The "Gullah"
language/culture began then but is still
alive and reflected in numerous ways,
most apparently in the exquisite weaving
of sweet grass baskets and preparation
of 'Gullah' culinary dishes. The Gullah
dialect is indigenous to the Sea Islands
and is a Creole blend of African &
English cadence, words and intonation.
The Gullah language & culture celebrates
the perseverence and courage of its
people. |
