“Stay in De Boat is unique and special in the world of anthropological film because it features the voices of the Gullah/Geechee community without either an intertext or an authorial anthropological voice. This kind of approach harks to the call for conducting ethnographic research and visual anthropology in new ways. It promises to be an important contribution to the field.”

“Stay in de Boat is a film made with very modest resources, yet it contributes decidedly to the documentary genre by presenting a lesser-known culture through its own distinct voices. The film authentically records the pride, character and essence fo the Gullah/Geechee people.”
