ognized tribe with 50,000 strong held their homecoming from June

Red Feather Style
Young Lumbee Tribe member,
Terry Sanford and UNC Chapel
Hill graduate Hillary Ransom
is utilizing her eye for fashion
and love of tradition by mak-
ing jewelry, which promotes her
heritage. The name of her jewelry
line, Red Feather, symbolizes the
beauty behind adversity. In the
Native American community, the
color red represents faith and
happiness and the feather sym-
bolizes trust, honor and strength
among other values. Each piece
is handcrafted by Ransom and
made of all natural materials.
Hillary hopes that each piece
pays tribute to her Native Ameri-
can roots while also showcasing
her individual spirit and style.
