The conditions that make for the emergence and persistence of collective identity are examined on the basis of the history of two marginal groups in North Carolina. These are the Haliwa and the Sampson County Indians which constitute a total population of approximately 6000 persons. Historically their status has been ambiguous. The traditional focal points of group identity have been the churches and the schools. Today the churches remain but the schools are gone. A new emphasis presently is being placed on associations, coalitions, and pageants as structures and expressions of Indian identity
