Artists and Residents Struggle

Bin Yah: [Gullah] n. sing. 1. “been here”: natives, long-time residents Come Yah: [Gullah] n. sing. 1: “come here”: newcomers Bin Yah: There’s No Place Like Home is a documentary presented by The ChasDOC Film Society that explores the potential loss of important historic African American communities in Mt. Pleasant, SC due to growth and development. Through the testimonies of the residents themselves, the film explores the culture, the history, the importance of land and the concept of home, giving a voice to those who seldom have had a chance to be heard. A proposed highway extension threatens to bisect these close-knit neighborhoods of cousins and kinfolk, established by freed slaves and home to generations of their families for hundreds of years. Many residents are artisans and craftspeople, practicing traditional skills including sweetgrass basketmaking, brought over from West Africa and handed down from mothers and fathers to sons and daughters. Today, Mt. Pleasant, South Carolina is the primary place in the US where this grass is harvested and “sewn” into this particular type of basket. Bin Yah will attempt to preserve — at least on film — the memories of the special places that may be lost forever as the struggle between the real “bin yahs” and the “come yahs” escalates.

HOLDING HANDS: Line in Sand, Amelia Island, Florida

On a small barrier island in northeast Florida, north of Jacksonville, people held hands at the beach to form line in the sand, part of the “Hands Across the Sand” demonstration held worldwide June 26, 2010. The organized event is reportedly “the largest gathering against offshore oil drilling in history.” Hands Across the Sand was sponsored on Amelia Island, Florida by the Nassau County, FLORIDA Sierra Club. About 150 people met at Main Beach Park in Fernandina Beach to give support. Then at 12 noon they held hands and formed a line across the beach, a metaphorical and actual “line in the sand.” Described by the organizer’s as “a peaceful gathering of the people of America and the world.” The image is powerful, the message is simple. NO to Offshore Oil Drilling, YES to Clean Energy. United against the dangers that offshore oil drilling presents to the world’s oceans and marine wildlife, fishing industries, and coastal economies.
