    One more thing, my tribe is sort of unique. No blood percentage required. Before Oklahomo became a state 1905 or some shit??? About a hundred years ago or so, they did a big census of all the Injuns living on the res land called the Dawes Rolls. If you can prove you have an ancestor on those rolls, you are Cherokee. If not, fuck off. Simple as it gets.

    Interesting story about me that nobody gives a fuck about...my Grandmother (first Dad's side) was living on the res in Oklahomo in 1941...then the Japs hit Pearl. They started a program for young smart Injun girls to go to nursing school, figuring they would need nurses for the war effort. So, Grandpa was in the 101st airborne and parachutes into France as part of Operation Neptune. Shattered his knee on his first jump into country, lays in a ditch all night unable to move, and gets rescued the next day. Anyway, knee is completely fucked so they send him back stateside and he meets grandma while convalescing at a VA hospital she was a nurse at. They got married that year and stayed married until grandpa died at way less than Race's current age. He was like 70.

    Cool story, I know.

    I'm fairly confident we're Eskimo brothers from our dalliances with the hired help. Can you ask the tribal elders if I qualify? If no, does fucking a native Hawaiian or an Eskimo count?

    Sorry boobielips no photos as it was pre camera phone
    Fucking an Hawaiin just means you are cool. Now fucking an Eskimo qualifies you for a few things - tribal membership, contact alcoholism, and snow AIDS. Cool, eh?
    Do Eskimos have issues with firewater?

    I figured the whale blubber or whatever it is they eat helps coat the stomach.

    Maize, not so much.

    this is from 2012 - she has basically lied about it every step of the way until caught then she updates the story:

    Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren acknowledged for the first time late Wednesday night that she told Harvard University and the University of Pennsylvania that she was Native American, but she continued to insist that race played no role in her recruitment.

    “At some point after I was hired by them, I . . . provided that information to the University of Pennsylvania and Harvard,’’ she said in a statement issued by her campaign. “My Native American heritage is part of who I am, I’m proud of it and I have been open about it.’’

    Warren’s statement is her first acknowledgment that she identified herself as Native American to the Ivy League schools. While she has said she identified herself as a minority in a legal directory, she has carefully avoided any suggestion during the last month that she took further actions to promote her purported heritage.

    When the issue first surfaced last month, Warren said she only learned Harvard was claiming her as a minority when she read it in the Boston Herald.

    Warren’s new statement came after the Globe asked her campaign about documents it obtained Wednesday from Harvard’s library showing that the university’s law school began reporting a Native American female professor in federal statistics for the 1992-93 school year, the first year Warren worked at Harvard, as a visiting professor.

    A campaign official said they had no records indicating that she had informed Harvard of Native American heritage that year.

    The official further said that Warren had been unable to answer questions about the issue before now because she had forgotten many of the details and had asked her campaign to thoroughly review the evidence. The campaign declined to say whether Warren provided the information to Harvard and Penn verbally or by checking a box on a form.

    The Harvard records do not list a Native American during the years Warren returned to her post at the University of Pennsylvania, but begin to list one in 1995-96, when she returned to Cambridge as a tenured professor.

    Two key people who recruited her to Harvard have said they did not know of her purported heritage or take it into account when hiring her. The school did not promote her as a Native American when she was hired, despite the fact that it was under intense pressure to diversify its faculty with more minorities.

    Federal statistics like those in the Harvard records, which were compiled for the Department of Labor, rely on a definition of “Native American’’ that requires both ancestry and an official affiliation with a tribe or community. The 1992-93 and 1995-96 Harvard reports indicate the university relied on that definition during those years as well as the years since.Continued...

    Pressing. Badly.
    She has the terrorist vote going for her so that's nice

    I thought a wigwam was just another word for teepee

    Actually, there are significant differences between them. Teepee's are much more mobile structures, made for being torn down and moved quickly, and made famous by western tribes who followed buffalo and hunted for food. Eastern tribes lives an existence more centered on farming, and supplemented by hunting, which allowed for more permanent structures like wigwams.

    I have gone after a combo lifestyle with my trailer, where it seems permanent, but kick some concrete blocks out and steal a truck, and BAM, that motherfucker is on the move!

    Interesting that east coast Indians were pussies just like the whites who stayed there because they were too scared to move west
    Actually Race, for Injuns, the East was the West. Their route into the Americans started in the Pacific, unless you're a Mormon, in which case they came on boats from the Kingdom of Israel.
    Cool story but I clearly said the whites were afraid to move west

    True, but you imply that the East Coast Injuns (i.e., Swaye's ancestors) were soft because they were farmers and stayed put in Wigwams vs being Tuff, nomadic, tatanka hunters like the Plains injuns. I was attempting to make the argument that the East Coast injuns were actually the smart ones, because their tuff and brave ancestors left the dry and harsh Plains and kept moving the East where living was easy. The smartest of all injuns were those of PNW- i.e., why take up farming, when you have an endless supply of salmon, berries, and Quilcene oysters.

    image
    So they aren't soft because they moved to where living was soft?

    There were some tuff tribes that moved west to get away from whitey and beat the shit out of the tribes in there way
    Lots of tuff tribes, but of the western tribes generally the Comanche, Apache and Cheyenne were the most feared. That said, of the tribes that got hardcore back east the Seminoles were no fucking joke, and neither were the Iroquois, despite constant contact with whitey and spaniards.

    Plenty of tuff fucking eastern tribes. My people got bitchslapped and marched to fucking Oklahomo though, so fuck me and my loser ancestors.

    The western Indians had no idea what was coming. By the time whites made it west, they were killing Paiutes for sport crossing Nevada and Utah. In CA, they had no tolerance and continued to engage in sport killing. Ishi the Indian was found on my great grandparents farm in Oroville. The last wild Indian of CA. Cool story I know.

    Sounds like the Injuns never had to play a ranked England.

    No, they did. In a shocking turn of events, they had to play a ranked Spain.
