Abstract:
When questions arise concerning the history or traditions of the Lumbee Indians of North Carolina, the first person approached is Adolph Dial, a Lumbee historian and humanitarian. Dial, the chairman of the American Indian studies Department at Pembroke State University, has long been recognized, locally and nationally, for his knowledge and contributions to the preservation and perpetuation of the oral and written history and folk traditions of the Lumbee people. His accomplishments include the creation of the Lumbee Regional Development Association (LRDA), the outdoor drama Strike at the Wind, the tribal history THE ONLY LAND I KNOW, and the organization of the Department of American Indian Studies at Pembroke State University.
