I do not want to debate the genetic and racial background of the Lumbees, but I went to school at UNC Pembroke, student-taught at Purnell Sweat High School, in Ms. McPhatter's class, and I spent several years in Robeson County, near the river and I can tell you that they definitely have there own distinct culture. They have their own dialect; you can tell it immediately when you hear it. But, most importantly, they are a good and loving people. Almost universally, they are good, kind and considerate people. I love them, I loved living in Pembroke, and I loved teaching them; They were so funny and kind. I'll never forget!
God bless you 🙏🏼
Just out of curiosity what unique culture do they have. Everything they do is poorly stolen from other tribes. And a dialect is not a language what my tribe has and literally fought a war to keep is what a language is (Pascua Yaqui). And every one of these people I’ve met personally has been a racist fuckwit so your experience is the exception not the rule
Nice to see and hear people carry on their culture or relearning don’t let people put you down for not knowing language, especially do to assimilation or colonization!
You all are missing the African ancestry component of being Lumbee
Of course. Many of us in the pee dee region of South Carolina around florence on up into Nc.
I agree, but there is only a certain percentage of African, European, and Spanish mixed into native tribes across united states. There are still pure natives (they still exist) that keep the traditions alive and passing this knowledge down to the next generation.
Ry Hy Uhm yea for some tribes. But this and a few others in VA/NC/SC are not “pure tribes.” They are literally tri-racial: Amerindian, European and African. And the Amerindian itself is also more of a mixture of some tribes : including Cherokee, Tuscarora and other Siouxan and Algonquian tribes.
DroidXPhone Yep, they didn’t even the decency to like/love any comments that brought to attention the lack of diversity in the video.
Fuck you
Our Lumbees are our most precious asset round these parts. The Lumbees ingrated first and it’s amazing to see how it works into current circumstances.
Thx for shinning lit on our culture and our people #nc #910 #lumz #lumbee #lumbeetribe #nativepride #robco
Beautiful people, beautiful culture!
I come from Columbus county in whiteville NC ,my mom born in Robeson county her ancestors are part lumbee and so am but I’m black and part lumbee🌼
Thank you for sharing - what a beautiful mix of cultures!
Yall need to have the darkskin Indians, this is my families County and tribe.
I come from the Locklear
i bet there are many locklears that are lumbee
There are many! :-)
im lumbee as a matter of fact recently visited sadly for a funeral
I'm lumbee and my last name is Locklear.
Yes .But God
Thanks for this! Enjoyed the interview & footage...but that beadwork. That beadwork...holy moly
Love the intro and the way you represent the cultures.
Thank you, Kaden :-) So many thanks for the support!!
Bare Feet® with Mickela Mallozzi I am Native American Lumbee and if you come back I would love to do a collab
@@kadenryan I hope to come back soon, I'll keep you posted!!
Bare Feet® with Mickela Mallozzi that would be great ❤️
Not accurate. They didn’t show such diversity in their pow wows. They are mixed with black, white, chickasaw, Croatian etc...some actually look more like the star of the show. I’m not knocking lumbee culture at all. I am just familiar with them. Their families etc. any Oxendine or Locklear is a “Lum” their English for lumbee, that’s right they got their own English and it is called lumbee English. There are a few that look more native. Also...they are NOT the largest tribe in NC. Cherokee is. But due to the cruelty and disparages we had as well...we had reform schools and forced adoptions. Not just trail of tears. I know a lot of displaced children. But many are of native ancestry and they aren’t accounted for. Lumbee last I checked was not federally recognized. I am cherokee and not lumbee by the way but respect them. However many members of the tribes do not. You only showed people what you wanted to show them and not what is. So to me that can be perceived as a bit racist. Some are black with blue eyes and they may have a cousin that looks white and another that looks native. That’s Bc they’re a melting pot of runaway freedmen, Croatian Indians and the English settlers . Chief Manteo lost to his brother chief Wanchese who wanted to scalp the settlers so manteo and Wanchese both fought a good fight. But manteo lost, was forced into exile and him and his white settler buds were forced to move. Hundreds of years later, freedmen slaves who were later considered to be contraband ...living out in hatteras, Nc ran to Robeson county and mixed with the manteo descendents and also that included Virginia dare decedents. I grew up in manteo. The good shit that you call a mystery...is a legend in our world.
My families tribe and they arent showing the dark Indians.
hi im a locklear
Freedman means "real" Indian! That's a racist term as well. The real Indigenous Indians were of so called "Negro" stock. Lumbee amongst other tribes are my bloodline and they consist of other tribes that intermarried. Waccamaw, Creek, Cherokee, Catawba etc...
@@brooklynlady96 I have Cherokees and Lumbee DNA matches, bot only the Cherokee matches show Native American DNA, usually around 1/4. Lumbee are generally 1/4 African. They're still an AMAZING people and culture. In line with what the OP said, some(like the Lumbee Jones family) of them have trace amounts of Native leftover from the handful of Natives who married into the community, but so does the average African American it appears.
@@25oxendine My father is Ben Jones and hes full blooded lumbee Indian, looks it too. My mom has Cherokee in her from her dad. Im tryna learn about the lumbee tribe, history, ancestry, etc..
all the dislikes are the kkk after we smacked em
Love the intro! That kid is awesome
He's the best!!
I would love to learn more about the Lumbee!
Beautiful people, beautiful traditions!
Saw an image of the Virgin of Guadalupe on Mrs . Locklear’s shawl. Since that is a Mexicansymbol of a Marian apparition, could there be some connection between the Lumbee and the Mexica of Mexico?
No. They just steal stuff from other tribes. These people are black and white mixed and they have no connection to any nahua/uto-Aztecan speaking tribes or any Native American tribes
Not at all
Interested. Issues concern are they part of the lost tribe of Israel- Gad. I need more information. As we know, five dollars Indians were established to gather land in early America
Cool...
Thanks for watching!
You should visit a real tribe and experience people who do not take from other tribes to make up something for themselves, and actually have a traditional language that is still spoken today.
You should educate yourself on the impact of genocide and assimilation on indigenous ppl instead of regurgitating colonizer tag lines. Maybe start with Custer Died for Our Sins.
@@ryanchavis2597their not native Americans… Lumbee isn’t even recognized federally. There is no dialect because they aren’t indigenous rather a mixed race of black and white.
@@Ice-Sik-illbut they are recognized by the state North Carolina
@@Ice-Sik-illdo you realize how many native tribes in the US are not federally recognized? Sooooo many!! Being federally recognized doesn’t determine whether you’re native or not.
@@edenboring1572 Probably because a lot of new tribes popping up, same with the lumbee. What other native tribes? If they wasn’t apart of wounded knee as far as I’m concerned and many other natives, then they’re not official.
Lol idk how you could understand our dialect
:-) Lumberton is wonderful!
