“An Absence That Marks A Presence”: Mapping Baltimore's Historic Lumbee Community

Published: Oct. 19, 2020, 12:51 p.m.

Sixty years ago so many members of the Lumbee Indian Tribe migrated from North Carolina to East Baltimore, that the area was known as “the reservation.” Today folklorist Ashley Minner is working to preserve this history and the memories of Lumbee elders. She guides us through the walking tour she’s created, which includes the Baltimore American Indian Center and Heritage Museum and Rose's Bakery. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
