Webinar Description:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This webinar shares original ethnographic research done by Dr. Hawkins to earn a master’s degree in applied anthropology and public health at The University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Beginning with an exploration of the health parameters of wildland firefighting in North Carolina, Dr. Hawkins then does a deeper exploration specifically of the role of cultural burning in the state, focused on the Lumbee Indian experience. This anthropological exploration of past and contemporary public health considerations offers those attending numerous insights into ways wildland fire can be managed in the future.
