520    Traces the history of a burial song of the Mende people 
       brought by slaves to the rice plantations of the Southeast
       coast of the United States over two hundred years ago, and
       preserved among the Gullah people there. 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.
