I am curious if Iron Eye (really?) Cody or Dan George ever tried to pass themselves off as Native Americans or if they were just actors who played a part because they looked the part. Anyone know? ETA" Just saw oddball's post on Cody. Missed earlier | |||

Chief Dan George really was a Chief of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation in Canada. He was born in North Vancouver, BC. At least that is what the internet tells me. | |||

What's to stop anyone from claiming to be partially Native American on a job application? I'm 1/2 Italian and have a nose like the Indian "Roman Nose" so who could challenge me? It's not like jobs require DNA tests. I don't do such things for the same reason I don't claim to have served in the military. Because it's wrong and it is stealing someone else's legal privileges. But there would be no way to "prove" I am not Native American, or even Hispanic. Such is the folly of defining people by race and ethnicity even if neither is apparent to those around you such that there can be no discrimination. There is an Italian running for Mayor of LA that says he is not white, he is Latin. Considering Latin was the language of Rome, and the parent language to Italian, Spanish, and Portuguese (along with French) he has a point. | |||

apparently, not much new stories https://www.thecollegefix.com/...-of-mohawk-ancestry/ A self-identified Native American scholar hired in 2020 by UC Berkeley recently admitted she has no proof she descended from two tribes she has built her academic career upon. Professor Elizabeth Hoover, who specializes in environmental justice in Native American communities, published a statement on her relatively new personal website that she will no longer claim she is of Mohawk and Mi’kmaq descent. UC Berkeley officials, in a 2021 news release touting diversity cluster hiring as a way to address equity and justice, quoted Hoover and described her as a “new Native American faculty member in ESPM and one of 11 self-identified Native American/Alaska Native ladder-rank faculty members at Berkeley.” But Hoover’s critics contend she built her scholarly career on false pretenses. The Indianz report cites several examples and publications in which she used the Mohawk and Mi’kmaq connection to build up her academic reputation and scholarly field of work. “More recently, Hoover said people who have been raising doubts about her background are the ones causing ‘damage.’ Internet messages seen … indicate that she considers herself a victim, even though she now admits her decades-long claims of being Mohawk and Mi’kmaq are unsupported by her own research,” the website stated. The Native American news outlet goes on to cite Drew Hayden Taylor, whose documentary “The Pretendians” is about “people who falsely assert a Native identity often try to justify their claims by bringing up the ‘good things’ they are supposedly doing for Native communities.” Over the summer, Hayden Taylor’s research led to the resignation of a self-identified “indigenous” scholar in Canada, who resigned from Emily Carr University after being outed as white. In 2021, a University of Saskatchewan professor was suspended after it was revealed her claims of being indigenous were also false, that she is actually “entirely European.” As The College Fix reported in June 2021, another six white female academics have posed as scholars of color in recent years to advance their careers. | |||

If you have any meaningful percentage of native blood… Then you have a card from the government indicating same. "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

Of course, she was a ridiculous person for going full-retard…I mean full traditional NA, but I’m not too against her doing all that since she was actually a NA. The mass of Mexicans are a combination of European and NA ancestors. But to go full traditional NA for lefty purposes is ridiculous. Retired Texas Lawman | |||

Do you have a social security card? Do you have an SSN regardless of whether or not you have a Social Security card?

https://roadmap.rootandrebound...et-a-tribal-id-card/ How do I get a tribal ID card? The process for obtaining a tribal ID card may be slightly different for each tribe, and may differ depending on whether you are already enrolled with the tribe. PLEASE NOTE: Requests for tribal ID cards no longer go through the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA). All requests for tribal ID cards now go directly to the tribe. Basic steps for getting a tribal ID card: Determine the name of the tribe.Call or write your tribe’s enrollment department, and ask if they have forms and instructions for enrollment and/or obtaining a tribal ID card. Follow any instructions given to you by the tribe, including sending any forms and supporting documentation. If you are not currently enrolled, send the tribe as many details as possible about your family history and tribal ancestry (and if applicable, use the forms they sent you). You will need to give the tribe as many details about your ancestry as possible — not just your parents’ information, but also information about your grandparents, great-grandparents, great-great grandparents, great-great-great grandparents, and so on. Include information about your family tree and history as far back as you can. Note: The process for obtaining a tribal ID card is much easier if you or one of your parents is enrolled in the tribe. | |||

I don't think there's some financial motive other than there's somebody out there willing to expose the frauds. That moment on-stage at the Oscars, has been made into an iconic photo; all sorts of Leftist groups like to hold it up as pivotal moment. Despite their protestations, I gather that no journalist wanted to take up the story and/or no editor wanted to print/publish it...until now. There's been a handful of ethnic frauds lately and since the Left is on the warpath to re-write history, exposing the liars is okay. Sacheen Littlefeather was a Native American icon. Her sisters say she was an ethnic fraud

Females are automatically minorities in this country in spite of the fact that they're not minorities in actuality. But I digress. What's happening is what happened when Mrs. Flash worked for the County. They were all County Workers, all Union members, and seniority was king, except when they came up with new rules. The new rules decreed that a "double minority" could bump a "single minority" and take their job. This means that if a white female had 20 years in the County and a black female with 1 year wanted their job, they could have it and the white female was suddenly unemployed. So, rumor has it that a bunch of white females with 20+ years in the county registered themselves as Hispanic or Black or Asian Pacific or whatever they felt comfortable with. By doing so, they kept their jobs and weren't laid off. I don't blame them a bit. | |||
