Two of our long term projects
here at the Native American
Resource Center have come to
fruition. First, we are pleased to
announce to premier of our new
video, Lumbee By Grace: Landmarks
In Lumbee Identity. This
thirty minute video is the
culmination of more than a year
of production (recording
interviews on videotape, editing
sounds and pictures, etc.). and
portrays I.umbee people miking
about what it means to them to be
I.umbee.
In the course of tins project,
and over the years of living and
working here, it has become
apparent that among the things
which have been consistently
important in the Lumbee
community are four "huidtntuk"
aspects of identity. They are:
home & family; the land & the
river; education & Old Main; and
religion & spirituality. Lumbee
By Grace combines still and
motion imagesof past and present,
interwoven with the words of
I.umbee people as they discuss
these "landmarks" of Lumbee
identity.
The premier showings of
Lurnbee By Grace w ill be held on
12 September 2(X)2 in the Native
American Resource Center in ()kl
Main Building. Show ings will be
at 2 I'M and 7 I'M There is no
admission clutrge. and the public
is welcome.
Lumbee By Grace is a video
production of the Museum of the
Native American Resource
Center, the Mass Communication
Department and the Media
Integration Project of the
University of North Carolina at
Pembroke.
Special gratitude goes to
George Johnson for his technical
assistance in the making of this
video, and to llarvey Godw in of
Two 1 lawk employment Services
for his financial support of the
project.
Second, w e are also pleased
to announce the publication of a
new book. Fine In The W'orLI:
Lurnbee Language In Tune And
Place. This book represents the
current state of knowledge on lite
subject of I.iimbcc English, its
origins and development. The
story of I .uinbee English is one of
the most remarkable narratives of
linguistic adaptability and
cultural perseverance ever
documented in the history of
American English dialects.
It shows that the l.utnbee
community responded to the
loss of their indigenous
languages by shaping the
English of their European
invaders into a unique emblem
of l.umbee identity. The
authors (Walt Wolfram. Clare
Dannenberg. Stanley Knick and
l.inda Oxendine) hope that
readers ssill catch a glimpse
ol the significance of language
as it is interwoven into the
fabric ot I .umbee hie.
Fine In '/'he World was
produced by North Carolina
Stale University's Humanities
Extension Publications, and is
available at the Native American
Resource Center.
