RJA #1: Areas of Academic Interest

Music
Language
Writing
Ethnomusicology
Geechee/Gullah Culture

Music is my life but, I am interested in other means of human communication. I love languages and the written word. I am currently enrolled in Writing Tutor, and am quite sure that course will provide some points of interest which will be beneficial to me in identifying a topic for the research project for this course. I am also studying Anthropological Linguistics and taking The Gullah Experience, a course that focuses on the Gullah, a group of African Americans whose isolation on the sea islands off the coast of Georgia and South Carolina allowed them to maintain more of their traditional African customs.
