Symposium tells the hidden stories of Georgia’s coast

“Symposium tells the hidden stories of Georgia’s coast” — Tiya spoke to a crowd of more than 450 attendees at the Coastal Georgia Center in February 2016. At the “Coastal Nature, Coastal Culture” symposium, Miles lectured about ghost tourism, and incorporated the actual history and retelling of an Igbo Landing revolt on St. Simons in which the enslaved people brought from Nigeria chose suicide over bondage, also known as the “Flying Africans.”
