In the background is an image that says "private property" and then text that reads Descendants of enslaved people on St. Helena Island in South Carolina brought a lawsuit today in an effort to preserve their ancestral burial grounds and cultural traditions at their community’s generations-old cemetery. Property owners have installed locked gates that, in violation of long-established South Carolina law and Gullah Geechee burial practices, prevent community members from exercising their right to visit, maintain, and hold burials at the sacred site, the suit says. Big House Cemetery and the surrounding area were once part of a plantation, where the ancestors of some plaintiffs and other local community members were likely enslaved. Following a tradition that dates back to slavery, the plaintiffs had continued to bury their loved ones and preserved their plots at the cemetery throughout their lives. Oceanside burials are significant to the Gullah Geechee community as they believe that their loved ones' souls use the water to return to Africa in death.
Image of a fence that blocks entrance to sacred burial sites on ancestral Gullah Geechee land. Text reads: Descendants of Enslaved People in South Carolina Sue for Access to Sacred Cemetery. A sign on the fence says "no cemetery access"
