As part of the weekly Community Dialogue and Discussion, and in celebration of Gullah Geechee Heritage Observance month, AARL is hosting a series of iconic cinematic features illustrating Gullah Geechee culture and narratives.

The Language You Cry In tells an amazing scholarly detective story that searches for -and finds- meaningful links between African Americans and their ancestral past. It bridges hundreds of years and thousands of miles from the Gullah people of present-day Georgia back to 18th century Sierra Leone. It recounts the even more remarkable saga of how African Americans have retained links with their African past through the horrors of the middle passage, slavery and segregation.
