Abstract:

On Ocracoke Island, where old-timers claim kin from Blackbeard’s day, a new community is taking shape. Most of the newcomers are from Hidalgo, Mexico, and many are from the same extended family. The two cultures may not speak the same native language, but they understand that the best way to weather change is together.
