Meet the SC duo keeping Geechee culture alive through viral videos, social media
You won’t find this type of preservation work in a museum or cultural center.
Instead, Akua Page and Chris Cato use viral videos and social media to preserve Gullah/Geechee culture via Geechee Experience, a platform that operates primarily through Facebook, Instagram and YouTube.
The duo’s first video, “Geechee 101,” went viral. It now has more than 420,000 views on Facebook, over 23,000 on YouTube and a few thousand more on Instagram.
