1 folder (0.1 linear feet)
In a series of interviews of local Eastern Shore residents in 1993, Salisbury University students and teachers collected folk life material. For this project, Elan Chertock explored the marijuana sub-culture. During his fieldwork, he observed several forms of folklore such as the customs and rules that prevail in a typical folk group indulging in recreational use of cannabis, the story telling (some stories were completely made up on the spot) and the folk speech specific to this activity. Transcripts of interviews enclosed.
