Historic preservation is a consistent term used throughout the United States and the Gullah/Geechee Nation, but this term does not necessarily contribute to cultural continuation.   Tune in to hear about this dynamic in the Gullah/Geechee Nation as "Historic Preservation Month" begins.  The "4th Annual Cultural Heritage Conference" was a truly interactive event in which a dialogue around this matter took place.  Queen Quet, Chieftess of the Gullah/Geechee Nation and Founder of the Gullah/Geechee Sea Island Coalition (www.QueenQuet.com) has actively spoken out about the difference between these terms in definition and practice for decades.  Tune in to this episode of "Gullah/Geechee Riddim Radio" to hear more about the impacts of these differences in the Gullah/Geechee Nation.
