  It should be noted that during the civil rights movement Gulfside served as a meeting place for the region.  Civil rights activist, Hollis Watkins of Jackson, MS, says "there were only three places where Blacks could meet in Mississippi during the movement, Toogaloo College, Rusk College and Gulfside."

  Today, Gulfside is still being used as a meeting place for groups of African Americans from all walks of life.  Regional meetings of the Southern Black Cultural Alliance have been held there over the past ten years.  Numerous retreats by business and religious groups, not all Methodist, are also held there on a regular basis.

  The facility is also open to individuals who simply want to stretch out and bask in its fine history.  So Gulfside Assembly is unquestionably hallow ground for not just Black Methodists but Black Americans.  When we look at the state of Black America today, Gulfside becomes increasingly more important, as a place and as a concept.  (V.F. Gulfside Assembly)
