the blood line down here is thorough that is why.

Exactly it's that GEECHIE/GULLAH bloodline...
Them folks off the east coast of the Carolinas ..GA...and Florida were mostly isolated from the rest of the world so they became INDEPENDENT SELF MADE PEOPLE till the integration years and corporate America saw the value of buying property on those.islands and placed hotels and private beaches there...smh
Which was actually reserved for those folks due to the 40 acres and a mule concession of the 1800s
I got to witness it first hand when I first moved down south and interacted with alot of Geechie folks....
My ex fiance is originally from dafuskie island South Carolina ...
The first media job I landed in the entertainment field came courtesy of a promoter who was also a BMF affiliate whom literally had his OWN island in the Charleston area near James island..he basically bought up the surrounding land that he had inherited from his family that's been around PRIOR to the slave days...and placed a recording studio there along with his own office ...
It was phenomenal..
Keep in mind it's alot of Moorish history here in South Carolina..most of the Geechie gullas practiced Islam in the early 1800s but that's a whole nutha thread brother
But yeah Carolinas gets it in...contrary to belief
