I don't know, it looks like a bad call to claim heritage and part of a minorities issues. Yawn. Its as bad as those Red Skins fans who claim their stupid mascot and football isn't culturally insensitive, because their great great grandfather's nephew (thrice removed) once had relations with Native American.

Generally it's a whole lotta white liberals who angrily insist that Native Americans need to be upset and a very small percentage of them that are that causes all the fuss.

There is no fixed value. 1/32 is the minimum required to claim native American status and is a little over 3%. I have that but I've never claimed it. But I know my family tree. A DNA test is going to show how much of that DNA made it into her unique person, it can't prove exactly how recent that ancestor was. It shows she isn't 'making it up', but it also shows the ancestor is earlier than her great-great grandma or grandpa.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

That said, and admittedly speaking as a non-Native American, I don't really have much of an issue with the team names outside of perhaps Redskins. Chief Wahoo really should be retired completely, though, that's just uncomfortable to look at.

This thread is hilarious. Warren proves her claims of native American decent are true, which many people here and elsewhere had mocked her for. And instead of contrite apologies, the conservative posters' reactions have been the kind that might make a casual reader of the thread think her claims had been disproven rather than proven. The unintentional self-parody from you guys is hilarious."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
