Fields of Fortune: North Carolina’s Legacy in Leaf and Labor

Tobacco has played a significant role in shaping North Carolinas cultural, economic, and social identity, even before the states official establishment. Early depictions of Native American communities along the coast at the end of the 16th century show cultivation and use of the plant. During the 19th century, tobacco became a cornerstone of the plantation economy, generating immense wealth for select families. In the 20th century, the rise of mass production and commercialization, along with an expanding labor force dedicated to its cultivation and processing, further embedded tobacco in North Carolinas way of life. Marketing campaigns and iconic imagery tied to tobacco are deeply woven into the states historical narrative. This exhibit showcases images, artifacts, and records from Special Collections & Archives, spanning from the sixteenth century to the modern era. It also features contributions from North Carolina artists and photographers, including Daisha Bunn and Erin Kye and their families, as well as works by photographer Dan Routh.
