The Language You Cry In tells an amazing scholarly detective story that searches for and finds meaningful links between African Americans and their ancestral past. It bridges hundreds of years and thousands of miles from the Gullah people and present day Georgia back to 18th century Sierra Leone. It recounts the even more remarkable saga of how African Americans have retained links with the African past through the horrors of the middle passage, slavery, and segregation.
