Synopsis

Narrated by Trelani Michelle 
Krak Teet is a Gullah Geechee phrase meaning “to speak.” This audiobook preserves the voices of Savannah’s Black elders—grandchildren of the enslaved who laid the city’s cobblestone roads and introduced its famous red rice and deviled crabs. 
These first-hand accounts share stories of struggle—Ms. Madie’s family fleeing after her father sold a pig without permission, Mr. Roosevelt packing his mother’s stab wounds with cobwebs, Ms. Florie marching Broughton Street twice a day to protest segregation—and stories of triumph—Queen Elizabeth Butler becoming the first Black woman in Savannah to own a car, Ms. Sadie earning $500 a week running numbers, and the city desegregating months before the Civil Rights Act. 
Krak Teet repositions Savannah’s Black history as central to the American story, not a sidebar.
