[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You really don't know that right? If someone is 1/16, how would you know? [/quote]

I think one can’t declare being Native American unless connected currently to a nation. I’m 1/16 or so. Most of us probably are. I never say I’m Native American. I didn’t grow up that way. I don’t know the language. I never was discriminated against bc if it.

People do ask if I’m from somewhere else, which is ironic. They ask if I am Arab, Greek, Jewish. I figure we have some other hidden history to have our color skin. I’ll never know for sure. [/quote]

Had your parents relocated to another part of the country, away from the nation, or they were just never really connected? Childhood friend's family was fairly connected, even though they had moved ~200 miles away as young kids. Nation recognized by USG in late '70s. Their dad now deceased, but mom has retired back in the community where they have built senior housing from gaming proceeds. They spend every summer there and guessing at least two of the now middle aged children may retire there in the coming years.[/quote]
