@pensmoke Bullshit. I'm blue card registered in Tahlaquah, CDIB 7/16th approved, Starr/Studi/Beaver Family

I was born/raised/live in Seattle WA. I know nothing about my Cherokee heritage nor do I care

The Cherokee tribe is the most corrupt tribe in the US. Our "Chief" gets a 1 million+ annual salary. WTF?

If someone has it their heart to be a Cherokee, by all means

But don't go calling people fake when you're sitting here talking redneck English while using a White mans technology

Hypocrite

Im a blue eyed white guy, and Im a Cha-la-gi.

Im 1/8 Cherokee, the same as Chief John Ross.

My indian ancestor was no ''princess''. He was a shiftless drunk and his daughter, my Grandmother hated him for it.

But however good or bad Great-Grampa Macomus was, he was 100% Cha-la-gi, whos parents hid from the relocation.

I dont have a ''tribe'', I have my heritage.

And I agree with you that the ''dreamcatcher indians'' are a PITA, wa-do.

I have some NA blood in me and im black lol But I dont claim to be something Im not because I am part NA and have always known spiritually. My great great grandmother was a full blood cherokee she was not mixed with European or African. The mixing came after lol My great grandfather was blackfoot indian. I take up after both sides as far as features. People always say I dont look black ( well I am mixed with more than NA ) they usually mistake me for being Hondurian.

@pensmoke. I have experienced the same feeling I guess, when foreigners in my country Sweden, come up to me saying that their anscestors were vikings. It is as fake as horns on a viking's helmet. That is a Hollywood product. Just as common as the feather bonnet placed in the wrong tribe. I think you do right letting pretenders know how you feel. But some times it's better just to let ut be. Let them dream.

[Letyourlegsspeak]

@pensmoke. Your video is very interesting. I can't but agree. I haven't one drop of NA blood and I have never claimed so either. But American Elders have on different occations spoken to me as if I was worthy of their attention. I do feel very honored by that. What I'm saying is that even a white person, like me can "be indian" spiritually, without pretending to belong to your rase. I also find it pathetic that people fool themselves that they a grand children to royalties or shamans. Human van

[olmecbones]

@pensmoke Lol! Translate it then, it's just plain old English to Syllabary, not even Tsalagi for your English speaking convenience.

I've known Tsalagi since I could speak, boy.

Doesn't mean I have any respect for your racist, redneck, corrupted, hypocritical "Nation".

[pensmoke]

@olmecbones Dude you dont even know what that means do you? Its gibberish. You are just putting Cherokee syllabary together hoping it looks like youare saying something LOL

[pensmoke]

@olmecbones I didnt say that you moron. Cherokee, Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, Seminole, etc are all from 'southern' areas of the US. Therefore some of us speak with a southern accent. Is that an easier explanation for you to grasp?
