Gullah Religion and the Black Church

The Black Church has always been the foundation of the Black/African American community. But what most people don't know is that many of the practices that continue to be experienced today, are directly tied to West African traditions ,p slavery and the Gullah Geechee culture. From the rite of passage called seeking, to jumping the broom and how ushers behave during the service, it's all connected. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
