St. Helena is sheltered from the Atlantic Ocean by the sea islands Hunting, Pritchards, and Fripp, and bordered by St. Helena Sound to its north and Port Royal Sound to the south. First occupied by subtribes of the Cusabo Indians, St. Helena Island got its current name from the first Europeans who landed there, around 1520: Santa Elena. The Spanish at first captured Native Americans for slave labor on Caribbean sugar plantations. By the mid- to late 1500s, the Spanish occupied the area, struggling with their rival, the French, over Santa Elena and other settlements (such as what is now St. Augustine, Florida). But by 1700, another colonial power, the English, had taken control of the island as part of its colony of Carolina. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e4a8556e2d276622495974/1632939545962-WWZQPWGKM0L7WRHSD822/island%2Bmap.jpg History The British, and later American, occupiers of St. Helena used the labor of enslaved Africans and Native Americans to build and work large agricultural holdings that produced rice and other crops. Due to the isolation of the Sea Islands, and the presence of relatively few landholders, these workers developed their own creole culture and language unique to the region: Gullah. In 1860, South Carolina became the first state (of eleven) to declare itself independent from the United States, launching the U.S. Civil War. The first shots were fired on nearby Fort Sumter in April 1861. South Carolina was an immediate target of the Union’s armed forces. The Sea Islands, including St. Helena, were occupied by Union forces early in that long conflict. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e4a8556e2d276622495974/1632940086394-1WTY66J8L9MZKZKSW829/display%252B%2525281%252529.jpg History - Because of that occupation, as early as November 1861, the coastal areas of South Carolina became home to an experiment in how to reorganize a society and economy built on enslaved labor, into a free one. By mid-1862, the Port Royal Experiment established schools and hospitals, and enabled freed people to buy former plantation land at low prices. African Americans in the Sea Islands kept the land productive and built their own financial independence, far earlier than anywhere else in the country—and before the more restrictive Reconstruction policies took hold. The Penn School was one shining example of that experiment. Today, the Penn Center tells that story, and much more. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e4a8556e2d276622495974/1633031521900-QDLHLMVM5HFEQ5PS0LDV/martin+luther+jr.jfif History - Oral Histories Over the years Penn Center has collected critical oral histories from community leaders and members. In 2019, Penn Center was awarded $50,000 for an oral history project to collect 30 civil rights histories of key civil rights workers who were with Martin Luther King Jr. at Penn Center between 1963-1967.

The Gullah Geechee represent the most tangible living example of one outcome of the Port Royal Experiment, a Civil War-era plan to tutor freedpeople out of slavery and into freedom—a “rehearsal for Reconstruction,” as historians have called it. Founded in 1862, Penn School, established by northern missionaries, was one of the first academic schools in the South to provide a formal education for previously enslaved West Africans. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e4a8556e2d276622495974/1631300330239-4P1AJL46321MCM7N0I70/image-7+%281%29.png About - After the school closed in 1948, Penn became the first African American site in South Carolina whose primary purpose was to safeguard the heritage of a Gullah Geechee community. Later, in the 1960s, Penn Center took up the mantle of social justice, ushering in the Civil Rights Movement and serving as the only location in South Carolina during the Civil Rights Movement where interracial groups, such as Dr. Martin L. King, Jr., the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and the Peace Corps could have safe sanctuary in an era of mandated segregation. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/60e4a8556e2d276622495974/1631300356073-Q7928H49R7OWNELGG9I1/75429336_3518873238123143_3249086834654838784_n.jpg About Penn Center continues to thrive as a National Historic Monument serving as a viable catalyst for sustaining the history and culture of the Sea Islands.
