Blood Quantum and Self- Identity

Our project is about blood quantum and self-identity. We hear how people in the Native community identify themselves. Some people struggle with their identity and what defines them. In this video, we show different opinions on whether or not people should get identified by blood.

Horses, dogs and Indians. That really lit a lightbulb in my head for how dehumanizing blood quantum is

4:42 he has a really good point...especially with native americans procreating with non native americans (native american dna diluting over the generations til eventually becoming 0.1% native american) our existence would end up being snuffed out...Also the elder 5:56 has a point and totally agree with her. P.S. I harbor no hard feelings toward people of european culture (only racists I hate racists!) in fact I love all cultures! I'm just someone who wants native american population to thrive and progress with the rest of the world 🌎

Blood matters because if you keep marrying European then eventually you are much more European than indigenous. My great great grandpa was indigenous and it showed in my grandpa but after that many generations of European blood insure would not consider my freckles self indigenous. My husband has a grandma that was indigenous and on his mom side he is Jewish. Our son is often mistaken for being Mexican and out daughter is fair, blind haired and blue eyed

So basically stop having babies with people who aren't Native. It may sound dumb, but I guess that would help. That's what it makes me think of.

Why does the audio drop out with some of the interviews? It doesn't take a genius to figure this out and correct it. This is important information. Its a shame we can't hear it.

I'm 1/3 and I have 2 other siblings but I came out brown and they came out white. At school, we went to an all Native school PK-12 and my brother was an athlete so he fit in he looks like a white native my sister was called white I was just another student because I'm brown. Are we still considered native to other natives?

I see all these comments about there being no audio in some places. I just watched this again on youtube from my computer and i could hear everyone. So I am not sure what is going on. I will try uploading again just to see if that changes anything. Thanks for watching. www.migizi.org/

Just my opinion and this goes out to all people, whether mixed or not: I just think its better to identify with the ancestry that reflects your physical appearance to avoid confusion.

For Tribal members who don't look natives, that's ok - just say that you are mixed, at least you are a tribal member.

If you have a 3/4 white ancestry and looks white, then identify as white.
If you are 1/2 white and 1/2 native and you exhibit both appearances, then identify as mixed white and native.

No need to complicate things ✌️

Blood quantum doesn't matter, if you have any Native blood and you feel the call to the native path then you are native.

you don't need to accept what they consider what blood quantum is defined from their tribe interest, if your 1/4, 1/8, 1/8, 1/2 and another 1/2, if your mother and father agrees your 100% tribal blood of various different tribal family ties, but still 100% Blood quantum, and I didn't say white or any other different blood but if any blood quantum interest is conscious made by staying with Blood tribal marriage,... then it should be respected as a 100% in retrospect of your past family ties. The respect is in your healthy living not based on hate through quantum mixing. that isn't been the way of our teaching or upbring!
All these outside problem began once we we Quitor turned away from using tribal naming ceremonies, warrior recognition, Honorarium of tribal passage, by listening to Indian agency genocidal policy,.. Departmental Indian agency destroyed traditions, that have guided for thousands of years, now shame rules and enforced if you don't side with the Indian agency style, which continues to destroy traditions, burying traditions right out existence through arguing them with your own family ties, even if they cause you indifference, traditions should reign supreme over Indian agency policies,.. renewing traditional recognition system naming warriors, rights of passage becoming of age, ceremonies, ceremonies and,.... not Indian shame through the Indian agency,... time to accept our good with the bad, because that makes us stronger, not better,.. traditions makes us better,..

We are all the accumulative genetic product of our ancestors. For instance, most people enrolled in the Cherokee Nation today are primarily descended from Scottish, English and Irish people, and they are primarily monolingual Anglophones. But their chosen identity is Cherokee nonetheless. It's a personal choice which ancestors you identify with and which ancestors you ignore. Oklahoma has had numerous politicians, including the current governor, who identify with one remote ancestor who was not British or Irish.
