Title: Languaging in Hampton Roads Episode 13: Guinea Talk: Gloucester County's Unique Dialect Hosts: Jill Winkowski and Prue Salasky Date: Feb 2, 2025 Length: 39:44 Publication Frequency: Fourth Friday (approx) of each month Take a ride with us--to Guinea Neck! Nestled in the marshland of Gloucester County, Virginia, is Guinea Neck, where the local community has made their living off the water for centuries. Traditionally, the lifestyle of Guinea has been comprised of long hours on the water and a tight knit community, the ideal situation for the development of a unique language variation. Although receding, the Guinea dialect is well known in the Gloucester area. We tapped into oral histories to try to understand the unique features of their dialect. In this episode, we introduce you to four Guinea watermen, born and raised in the early to mid-twentieth century. We take account of their stories of living and working on the water, while walking through the stages of their lives and experiences. Along the way we talk with linguist, Dr. Bridget Anderson at Old Dominion University. Dr. Anderson is the founder of the Tidewater Voices oral history project (see info below).  Dr. Anderson talks with us about how to listen for differences in the vowels and other features of the Tidewater and Guinea variations and emphasizes the importance of deeper, broader study to understand the distinct variations. We also talk with Carlene Klein who, with two other students of Dr. Anderson, through a yearlong ethnographic process, interviewed a number of the Guinea watermen. The Guinea watermen featured in this episode share stories of growing up in the remote marshes of Guines, of living with their close family connections, of learning the ropes and starting work on the water at young ages, and of the joy of being on the water. Tidewater Voices is housed at ODU Digital Commons and is available to the public for research. There are 22 Guinea oral histories in the collection. You can find them here: https://digitalcommons.odu.edu/tidewatervoices_gloucester/  Look for the Guinea subheading.  If you like languagingHR episodes and want to hear more about how we created the episodes for 2024, get a behind this scenes tour by listening to our presentation to the National Museum of Language: https://languagemuseum.org/past-events/ languagingHR was also featured in The Virginia Pilot in December.

Bill Byrd, former capitol reporter for the Virginia Pilot, joins John Reid to discuss the state of the media and who, if anyone, is executing the watchdog role these days.

Author Ed Power first became intrigued by the human interaction with nature, and the risks inherent in this intersection, growing up as a surfer and sailboat racer on the mid-Atlantic coast. A former longtime editor and publisher, Ed had previously worked as a journalist for Virginia's largest newspaper, The Virginia Pilot, and The Philadelphia Inquirer. When Ed eventually retired, he and wife, Marguerite, moved to Utah to become, in his words, “ski bums.”  The sounds of morning avalanche control explosions soon piqued his journalistic curiosity. Ed describes this dangerous and fascinating profession in Dragons in the Snow: Avalanche Detectives and the Race to Beat Death in the Mountains, which won the 2020 National Outdoor Board Award for Outdoor Literature. We are fortunate that Ed and Marguerite have become part of our Portland Art Gallery community. Join our conversation with Ed Power today on Radio Maine.

In Virginia, there were more eviction hearings scheduled in September compared to any month since October 2017; GRTC has approved a new plan that would improve over half of its bus stop locations; On Thursday, a Richmond court heard arguments in a case regarding the city's last standing confederate monument; and other local news stories.

Hear from Shehan Jeyarajah from @CBSSports, Jeff Howe from @Horns247, David Hall from the Virginia Pilot and more on the Tuesday episode of Game Time.

Good morning, RVA! It’s 72 °F, and today looks hot but with a chance of rain this morning and perhaps this evening as well. I think if you’re waiting on cooler temperatures, you should instead just make peace with the fact that you’re gonna be a sweaty mess for the next forever.Water coolerAs of this morning, the Virginia Department of Health reports 598↗️ new positive cases of the coronavirus in the Commonwealth and 23↘️ new deaths as a result of the virus. VDH reports 49↘️ new cases in and around Richmond (Chesterfield: 28, Henrico: 7, and Richmond: 14). Since this pandemic began, 221 people have died in the Richmond region. The COVID Tracking Project now has state-level graphs that exactly match the Virginia graphs I have in my own personal spreadsheet. Check out the Commonwealth’s couple-weeks plateau of new cases and it’s worrying increase in new deaths. Important, considering: We’re in Phase Three, y’all! Most places and businesses can now reopen as long as folks keep six feet of social distance between themselves, and gatherings of up to 250 people are now allowed. Yesterday, at the last minute, the Governor took the smallest step back from full Phase Three and extended the ban on bar seating in restaurants. This is good news, but better news would have been to just keep bars closed. Here’s what Dr. Fauci has to say: “Bars: really not good, really not good. Congregation at a bar, inside, is bad news. We really have got to stop that.”Peter Coutu at The Virginia-Pilot has an update on the State’s contact tracing program, which sounds like is still—on the 1st of July—in the process of spinning up. The Virginia Department of Health declined the Pilot’s interview requests, so the Pilot journalismed them with a FOIA request instead. Way back on March 13th—basically Coronavirus Day One—I said I wanted high-quality and up-to-date information from our State, City, and institutions. That’s still true 100-and-some days later, and it applies to infection/death stats just as much as it does to the ongoing work to crush this virus. Expect to hear more on this story as reporters continue to dig in.While City Council did not meet to introduce Confederate monument legislation at 12:00 AM last night, they will do so at 11:00 AM today instead. While a meeting at the stroke of midnight would have signaled something about the speed at which Council wants to take these monuments down, in general, middle-of-the-night public meetings are not the best. I think 11:00 AM works just fine. Note that the very brief agenda (PDF) for today’s special meeting calls for the introduction of “legislation related to monument removal and police reform.” I imagine we’ll see Councilmember Lynch and Councilmember Jones’s ordinances (fingers crossed they are ordinances and not non-binding resolutions) to ban the use of chemical weapons by the Richmond Police Department. If you’ve got time, you should tune in, because I imagine Council will take the opportunity to do a bit of speechifying.Good vibes continue at the Lee Circle, which, for most folks spending time there, has been renamed Beautiful Marcus-David Peters Circle. The guerrilla landscaping around the guerrilla signage continues—now with mulch! Plus a new basketball hoop showed up the other day. This is the second or third replacement hoop, and it’s clear to me that basketball should be part of this space moving forward. That’s probably not something that would have showed up on whatever placemaking survey I’d have made y’all fill out!Related, I do not know what to make of this Executive Order the Governor signed on Monday (PDF). Technically, its an amending of the previous Executive Order 64 and extends a State of Emergency in the City of Richmond until July 30th. You can see the original EO here (PDF), which calls for the exact same actions as the newly amended EO. Some folks are concerned about the preamble language, including this bit that totally ignores the Virginia State Police’s role in gassing and shooting Richmonders with rubber bullets: “Often, peaceful demonstrations evolve into conflicts with law enforcement during late night and early morning hours.” Gee, I wonder how that evolution takes place? That said, a State of Emergency declared by the Governor gives the City more authority to do the things required to ameliorate emergencies. For example, Councilmember Lynch repeatedly referenced the State of Emergency at a recent committee meeting as a possible way around the State’s dumb and required Confederate monument process. Mel Leonor at the Richmond Times-Dispatch, has a quick piece that says the Mayor did request the extension.Hey! It’s July 1st, which means a ton of new State laws go into effect. Caleb Stewart at WHSV has a long round up, which I appreciate because who can even remember this past General Assembly session? Of interest to you, probably, are: no more guns in parks or government buildings, photo IDs no longer required for voting, and decriminalization of marijuana. Ned Oliver at the Virginia Mercury has more on what the last thing on that list actually means.The RTD’s Mark Robinson looks at the abbreviated?, rushed?. expedited? process to hire the City’s new police chief. Today is new Chief Gerald Smith’s first day on the job, and, whew, there is a lot going on. Robinson closes out his piece with this optimistic quote from Councilmember Lynch, “He’s stepping into this climate and has committed to listening, so if we get off to a collaborative start and he’s a part of this process, my sense is he’s committed to work with us.”Tonight, at 7:00 PM, you’ve got an opportunity to listen to a ton (maybe all?) of the Richmond region’s delegates. Delegate Adams has set up a zoom with: Delegates Aird, Bagby, Bourne, Carr, McQuinn, VanValkenburg, and Willet plus Senators Hashmi and Morrissey. That’s a lot of legislators in one (virtual) place, and you can sign up for the Zoom over here.This morning’s longreadTrump Is Boring Now, and He Can’t Do Anything About ItI liked this piece because “Trump is boring” is one of the few things that have given me hope about November’s election. Also, it’s good to be reminded that no matter how wrapped up we get about Confederate monuments in Richmond, there are much bigger, much more terrible fish to fry.This might have been effective were statue supporters a major voting bloc. But with more than 120,000 Americans dead from a pandemic, current COVID-19 rates exploding, and 40 million people having lost their jobs, it’s a little hard to imagine that the elevation of the problems of dead Confederates over those of living Americans is going to excite a great many voters. At a time when the country is experiencing not just the pandemic and the resulting economic collapse but also a genuine outpouring of anger about racial inequities, the president is not merely swimming against the tide of public opinion; he is doing so on a matter that seems like a non sequitur. And it’s hard to revive interest in yourself by spouting non sequiturs.If you’d like your longread to show up here, go chip in a couple bucks on the ol’ Patreon.

Tangier Island, Virginia, has been home for eight generations to a unique community of now some 470 hardy souls, many of whom make their living harvesting the region’s prized blue crab. But their island home -- a barely 2-acre sliver of mud and sand and grass in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay -- is fast disappearing beneath the waters. Whether the culprit is erosion by the Bay’s relentless currents, as most Islanders believe, or the rising sea levels scientists say have been triggered by global climate change, the outlook for Tangier Island and its people is bleak. Today, Midday senior producer and guest host Rob Sivak spends the hour with Virginia-based writer Earl Swift, a long-time reporter at the Virginia-Pilot who has spent more than 30 years writing about the Chesapeake region, and who has circumnavigated the Bay in his kayak. The Chesapeake is the setting of Swift's newest book -- his seventh -- which chronicles the daily lives and hopes of the Tangier Islanders, against a backdrop of environmental and political forces that seem beyond their control. The book is called Chesapeake Requiem: A Year with the Watermen of Vanishing Tangier Island, published by Dey Street Books (an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers).

Traylor and Melody are joined by author Joy Beth Smith to discuss her book, Party of One, celebrating seasons of singleness, and finding other joys in life. Joy talks through her upbringing and various aspects of it that have impacted who she is as a person, a christian and a single. She discusses how she has had a desire to have a husband throughout her life, but she also appreciates her singleness as its own beautiful, life giving time on its own. Joy emphasizes that a season of singleness doesn’t mean you put your life on pause. There are so many things that single women put off because they are waiting for marriage. Something as simple as buying dishes for your house or taking a trip because you “want to do that with your husband”. She encourages women to live their life. Don’t live in the limbo of waiting. Do things you desire and buy things you love. That leads to an opportunity to combine lives with someone without losing your individuality. Joy discusses her experiences with dating and how as a bold, independent woman impacts dealing with the dating world. She discusses her thoughts on how single women are empowered and how this often times shuts men down leading to a insecure man in the dating world.
