#Gullah #Geechee lesson on what our flag means
Black is for the #African people

The Haint Blue is a #hoodoo #rootwork color of protection from bad spirits #Haints are bad spirits so #HaintBlue protects us from them
Green is for Land
Gold represents the Sun
The #rice crop represents our ancestors agricultural knowledge
Crab represents Unity, Loyalty and Self Sufficiency
Spears represent the #GullahWars
