If the tribe didn't ask that question about "percentages" while identifying me , certainly you have no right to ask it.... In an attempt to dissect my identity.
I'm an African American with Native roots who chooses to connect with my Native heritage and community. I have active tribal affiliation . Period.
There's a reason why Elizabeth Warren got in even more hot water with NAs after presenting her 1/1024th "probable" Native DNA results. And it's not because it was so small. It was the fact that she was using a very racist measure of "blood" to claim ties to a tribe.
If you I came to any tribe with a DNA report saying you was 50% NA, they'd say OK. That's nice . But Who's your family and what are their names . How does this DNA report connect you directly to our tribe?
