    Gullah Geechee Indigenous Articulation in the Americas By Sharon Y. Fuller A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy, and Management in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Jeffrey M. Romm, Co-Chair Professor Carolyn Finney, Co-Chair Professor Rachel A. Morello-Frosch Professor Isha Ray Fall 2015 Copyright 2015, Sharon Y. Fuller Abstract Gullah Geechee Indigenous Articulation in the Americas by Sharon Y. Fuller Doctor of Philosophy in Environmental Science, Policy and Management University of California, Berkeley Professors Jeffrey Romm and Carolyn Finney, Co-Chairs Gullah Geechee are descendants of enslaved West Africans who have articulated cultural traditions of their ancestors with the land- and seascapes of the Sea Islands. The ecological similarities of Sierra Leone’s coastal region facilitated the importation of African traditions into what became South Carolina, thus resulting in land-based cultural practices that can be defined in an unexpected way as indigenous (Reardon and TallBear 2012). The Gullah Geechee disrupts the dichotomy of traditional or historical indigeneity and diasporic identity (Clifford 2001, Yeh 2007). They are diasporic and also situated in a particular place. De jure sovereignty is not the reality but rather de facto assertions of belonging to the land. Rather than a biological hybridization inheritance analysis, my research uses a geographical and social type of co-constitution to illustrate Gullah Geechee indigenous articulation in the Americas (Ng'weno 2007, Sturm 2002). Rising from the legacies of the American South, the Gullah Geechee secured land abandoned after the civil war legally and through community sanctions.

  • Slave Productivity in Cotton Picking” with Alan Olmstead

    Slave Productivity in Cotton Picking Alan L. Olmstead and Paul W. Rhode November 2020 Abstract: Social scientists have devoted much effort to measuring and analyzing gender and age productivity differentials. In American economic history, gender productivity differentials have important implications for key issues ranging from the relative efficiency of plantations compared to free farms and the pace of industrialization. We use a new data set to estimate direct physical measures by gender and age of productivity in cotton picking—the peak activity and largest use of labor in cotton production. Based on archival data, we have constructed a sample of 757,538 individual observations of daily cotton picking performed by 7,043 enslaved African-Americans on 29,268 picking days on 141 different plantations over 513 plantation-years during the period 1801-1862. Our specific findings include that (1) in the plantation sector, females and males performed essentially equal shares of the picking work over the ante bellum period; (2) before 1840, adult females picked about 2 percent more per day than adult males; (3) after 1840, the differentials reverse and adult males picked 7-11 percent more per day; (4) productivity in picking, performed on an individual basis, was higher on larger-scale units; and (5) the micro picking data raise severe problems for the “pushing” hypothesis recently advanced in the New History of Capitalism literature.

"Discover and Understand Carolina v'ds by Walking" is D.U.C.K. Walking. An aerobic walking activity, D "..L.K. Walking has two major goals: (1) to promote regular walking as a way to exercise at any age; and (2) to emphasize that good health begins with the help of family, friends, and school. Included in this manual are hints for the implementation ard maintenance of aschoolwide walking program. Sample lesson plans provide guidance for 30 weeks of walking each year. In Level 1, classes accumulate "class miles" each week as they study about fitness walking. In Level 2, classes may relate the week's "class miles" to an imaginary tour of South Carolina. Further, students may relate imaginary tours to existing field trips and family trips. Level 3, "Going the Extra Mile," is an integrated approach to health, social studies, mathematics, language arts, science, physical education, and fine arts.
