In the 1930s a pioneering Black linguist, Lorenzo Turner, recognized its origin, and in the 1990s scholars Joe Opala and Cynthia Schmidt discovered that the song was still remembered in a remote village in Sierra Leone. Dramatically demonstrates how African Americans retained links with their African past, and concludes with the visit of the Gullah family which had preserved the song to the Mende village, where villagers re-enact the ancient burial rites for them. 538 DVD-R. 546 In English and Mende with English subtitles. 650 0 Mende (African people) 650 0 Folk songs, Mende. 650 0 Gullahs|xMusic. 650 0 African Americans|zGeorgia. 650 0 African Americans|xRace identity. 650 0 Ethnomusicology|zSierra Leone. 650 0 Burial|zSierra Leone. 651 0 Sierra Leone|xMusic. 655 7 Documentary films.|2lcgft 700 1 Toepke, Alvaro. 700 1 Serrano, Angel. 700 1 Smart-Grosvenor, Vertamae. 710 2 Inko Producciones. 710 2 Universidad de Alicante.|bTaller de Imagen. 710 2 California Newsreel (Firm) 994 02|bGWV
