The Gullah Chronicles by Michele Lamons-Raiford is a compelling collection of poetic expressions inspired by a transformative writers' retreat in Hilton Head, South Carolina. Lamons-Raiford captures the beauty, resilience, and legacy of the Gullah-Geechee people-the descendants of West Africans enslaved on the coastal plantations of the Carolinas and Georgia. This powerful reflection bridges history and personal transformation.

Hilton Head, SC - October 8, 2025 - Acclaimed educator and author Michele Lamons-Raiford invites readers into a deeply moving exploration of heritage, resilience, and personal transformation with the release of her newest work, The Gullah Chronicles.

Born from a life-changing writers' retreat in Hilton Head, South Carolina, in October 2023, The Gullah Chronicles is a stunning collection of essays that interweaves rich storytelling with vivid photography. Lamons-Raiford's prose captures not only the breathtaking beauty of the Lowcountry landscape but also the enduring spirit and traditions of the Gullah-Geechee people, the descendants of West Africans enslaved on the coastal plantations of the Carolinas and Georgia.

Through her thoughtful reflections, Lamons-Raiford explores the intersections of culture, identity, and belonging. Each piece of prose resonates with both historical reverence and intimate self-discovery, offering readers a rare opportunity to walk alongside her as she honors a people whose legacy continues to shape the cultural fabric of the American South.

"This book is more than a collection of poetic expressions; it is a journey through memory, ancestry, and the unspoken stories that bind us together," Lamons-Raiford shares.
