The reporter is biased and the use of the word "voodoo" shows his lack of knowledge of South Carolina African-American culture.

I've been to Olatunji Village.

One thing the report does not mention is that, while South Carolina has a school system that ranks among the bottom among our 50 states, the children of Olatunji Village surpass the entire state and are equal to or better than children who have had private school education or went to the better public schools.

They are beautiful and disciplined and in maturity, are far more mature than other South Carolina children their ages.

Attempts by the states to force the Olatunji kids to attend regular South Carolina schools have been vigorously fought because they are better than the predominately white schools they would attend.

Every year, the children of Olatunji Village are used in the opening ceremonies for the annual Gullah Festival, held in Beaufort, about 30 minutes west of Olatunji Village.
