Who are the Gullah people?
Who are the Gullah people?
The Gullah Geechee people are of West African descent. Many were enslaved on rice, cotton and indigo plantations along the coast. These regions included the Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida. Being in isolated regions perserved a distinct culture rich in arts, music, food, customs, and language.
Gullah Business of Charleston was founded in late August 2023 with a passionate mission to spotlight and support black-owned businesses. The driving force behind this initiative is President Nicole Pringle, who began laying the groundwork in October 2023. Recognizing the potential and importance of this venture, her cousin, Tiffany Savage, joined the team as Vice President, bringing her own dedication and expertise to the project.
Together, Nicole and Tiffany have committed to making Gullah Business of Charleston a beacon for black entrepreneurship, fostering a community where these businesses can thrive and receive the recognition they deserve. Their unwavering commitment to this cause is evident in every aspect of their work, as they strive to create a lasting impact on the local economy and beyond.
Elevate Your Business with Us
Dear Family & Friends,
My name is Joshua Mishoe — I’m a fitness trainer, youth mentor, and storyteller from Bucksport, South Carolina. I’ve always believed in using my passions to uplift my community, especially through art, culture, and creativity.
That’s why I created Camp Geechee — a powerful new manga series rooted in the rich traditions of Gullah Geechee culture. It blends spiritual hoodoo magic, ancestral wisdom, and heroic storytelling into a world that honors where we come from and inspires where we’re going.
Camp Geechee isn’t just a comic — it’s a cultural preservation project. Through the clans, powers, and characters, we’re keeping our history alive and making it exciting for the next generation.
We just launched our Kickstarter, and here’s how it works:
• It’s all or nothing — no money is taken out unless we reach our funding goal.
• You can pledge any amount, starting as low as $5.
• Sharing is just as powerful — every post, forward, and kind word helps us grow.

We’ve got 22 days left to raise our $15,000 goal, and I truly believe we can do it with your help.
What I’m asking:
If this speaks to you, I’d be honored if you could support in any way — by donating, sharing the link, or spreading the word. Let’s show what we can do when culture, creativity, and community come together.
Thank you so much,
Joshua Mishoe
