Gullah, also known as Geechee or Sea Island Creole, is an African American Language spoken along the coast and Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia.

Train derailments involving toxic chemicals have caused people living in other places around the nation to go through similar traumas. One of these events occurred in 2012, in the small town of Paulsboro, N.J.
Spectrum News 1 Ohio visited this town to speak with those who lived through the derailment, to see what we can learn from their experiences more than 10 years later. One of those individuals is the town's current mayor.
Stevenson has lived in Paulsboro his entire life. The two-square mile town near Philadelphia is home to approximately 6,000 people. Over the years, he's served his town in a variety of positions. During the time of the derailment, he was on city council and also the deputy fire chief of the local volunteer fire department.
It was around 7 a.m. on Nov. 30, 2012, when a Conrail train derailed while travelling over the Paulsboro movable bridge. This was the original bridge, over Mantua Creek, originally built more than 100 years ago.
To him, any economic distress and crime his community faces plague many others in small-town America. That's not to say, he said, that the stigma of the chemical spill didn't leave any sort of impact.
