I was completely unaware of this event. This is one of the most fascinating articles I have read in quite a while. The newspaper's presentation is excellent.
I had never even heard of Lumbee Indians until I moved here. They are a significant portion of the population in these parts. That is why UNC-Pembroke was able to retain Indians as their mascot when others, such as ULM, were not not. It seems like the biggest majority are named either Locklear or Chavis. Sean Locklear of the Seattle Seahawks is part Lumbee & is from Robeson County.
