"I had too much Indian blood to have skin this dark which was my childhood dream until the Phillippine's sun baked me reddish brown... This is a powerful image for me. I used to hunt feverishly for recordings of the Gullah dialect and songs.  The Library of Congress had old recordings that I listened to intently for hours on end.  It connected me to the Africa I had come from reminding me that the soil of Africa was a tangible thing I could walk upon if I visited their island.  But looking at Queen Quet's picture I am planning a trip to visit, and meet her."
