The McIntosh County Sheriff's Office barred me from bringing my audio recorder to last night's public meeting about rezoning of ancestral Gullah Geechee land. I pulled up the Georgia Open Meetings Act on my laptop and showed it to the chief deputy. It made no difference to him:

One of the few remaining Gullah-Geechee communities in the U.S. is in another fight to hold onto land owned by residents' families since their ancestors were freed from slavery. gpb.org/news/2023/09/0…

“I’m glad they came out in mass. I counted roughly 150-160 people in the room. I didn’t hear one person who was in support of these changes. It’s important that their voices are heard,” said Commissioner Roger Lotson. wtoc.com/2023/09/08/pro…

McIntosh is rushing through a new ordinance that would allow for giant mansions in Sapelo's historic Hogg Hummock community—where descendants have fought to remain for generations—transforming the island & further forcing longtime residents off the island. thecurrentga.org/2023/09/08/ori…

“It’s a step back in time,” (Commissioner) Lotson said. “And the fear of many, including myself, is that by allowing any size house over there, soon the uniqueness of Sapelo will go away.” apnews.com/article/gullah…
