Indigenous self-ID/"Pretendians" (merged thread)

Being indigenous isn’t even always a blood thing either. I know people adopted by a native who then gained status despite ethnically not having that background. Legally they are a 6(2) Indian though.

Keep in mind most Reserves want to keep it pretty restrictive to be status. Having it too ‘diluted’ means that you will have people not closely tied to the band with a say and we can’t have that.
Yea when there is money involved and a pecking order based on bloodlines it can get nasty.
 
If pretty much everyone in North America is already at least 1/1024 Cherokee, what is the threshold?

Well, since a big talking point is that we have either too many or too few immigrants, I would suggest that not everyone in North America is any part Indigenous…
 
whoops, I misspoke but I won't do it again
A wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious.

And I’m not speaking of Mos Eisley
