In M. M. Lowery’s The Lumbee Indians, Chapter Two: “Disposed to Fight to their Death” (pp 42 – 58) Lowery (2018) argues that as early as the 1770s in the eastern and southeastern areas of the United States, Native people were often described as “Mulattoes” in reports by Patriots (American settlers). In your own words, give the reasons why this was done. Don’t forget to include the names of mulatto families identified in the Chapter.
