Please see the attached article in the Caribbean Today September 2026 issue on page 15 (link below): "The travel feature explores Charleston's deep and often overlooked Caribbean roots—from the 1670 arrival of English settlers by way of Barbados, to the enslaved West Africans who built the Lowcountry rice economy, to the food, architecture and Gullah Geechee culture that still carry those connections today. The article guides Caribbean travelers through Charlestowne Landing, Middleton Place, the International African Museum and the Charleston City Market, with practical notes on where to stay, where to eat and how to get there." Thanks to journalist Felicia J. Persaud for her excellent reporting, writing and research on this topic. 🇧🇧🇬🇧🇺🇸 https://www.newsamericasnow.com/charleston-caribbean-trail-barbados/
