Two-Hundred Voices: Reclaiming Gullah/Geechee Places, Spaces, and Narratives in Nassau County, Florida,” is a spatial reparations project. The project recaptures and restores the cultural community's spiritual connection to historic places and sacred spaces--such as forgotten burial grounds currently threatened by erasure due to development--by elevating the voices and narratives of elders, and collecting and archiving their memories of their ancestors. Funding supports the design of a cloud-based cultural genealogy project that digitally reconnects descendants to their ancestors who established communities inside local tenant labor camps. Funding also supports the identification and site assessment for a cultural resilience nature retreat, the launch of an inaugural cohort of Gullah/Geechee Land Stewardship Fellows, and the production of Nassau County's first Gullah/Geechee Community Day.
