West Gambian Kora musician Salieu Suso brings us traditional Kora music. The Kora is 21-string harp traditionally made with a gourd, cow hide and antelope strings, invented by a distant ancestor and passed down through generations. The kora music was used in royal courts to help kings make hard decisions, to decide over battle strategies and among warriors to ease trauma from battle.

It is the story of the spiritual strength  of the Gullah Geechee speaking people of the Atlantic coastal southern region. This airs again, Sunday at 11:30am as part of the Provicetown Intl Film Festival. 

"Under the orders of General William Sherman, the ancestral home of the Gullah people was originally deeded to freed slaves after the Civil War. But when the real estate of the southern U.S. coast is eyed by the wealthy, tax hikes and land auctions threaten the homes of the people who have been stewards of the region for generations."
