of cultivating tobacco. From early cultivation
and spiritual use to commercialization and disenfranchising labor practices like sharecropping and tenant farming that shaped the twentieth century the symposium will explore shared experiences with this sacred crop. Tobacco has been an essential crop to
Lumbee people for centuries.
