Priscilla’s Posse

Presented through songs, lectures, and photographs, Ron Daise recounts the historical visit of Thomalind Martin Polite of North Charleston to Sierra Leone in May 2005. Polite is the seventh generation descendent of “Priscilla,” the 10-year-old Sierra Leonean who was captured as a slave in 1756 and brought to a rice plantation in South Carolina. The performance will cite exhibits along Brookgreen Gardens’ Lowcountry Trail.
