They literally have her Massachusetts birth certificate. There is nothing tying her to being indigenous except her wanting to be perceived as such.
As a full blooded indigenous person the news about this completely sucks
The message is .....
This revelation doesn't say that much about Santamaria .... it says so much about how everyone doesn't really care about full or mostly blooded native individuals.
Kinda curious, why should anyone care how much "indigenous blood" you have. Shouldn't your personal circumstance, history, and culture be a more important focus than your genetics?
