Lumbee Tribe Gains Federal Recognition
The Lumbee Tribe of North Carolina is on the brink of full federal recognition, a historic milestone after years of advocacy. This recognition, included in a defense spending bill passed by the U.S. Senate, would make the Lumbee the largest federally recognized tribe east of the Mississippi River. If signed by President Trump, this recognition would validate the tribes identity and open access to crucial resources. Adrian Lowry, a Lumbee tribal member, shares her personal journey and the tribes long-awaited recognition, which she believes will empower future generations and provide better opportunities for their members.
