PS here's that time we showed that there's often a big gap between what people think they are genetically, and what their % genetic admixture actually is, given ancestry informative markershttps://www.researchgate.net/publication/23414663_Genetic_Admixture_Self-Reported_Ethnicity_Self-Estimated_Admixture_and_Skin_Pigmentation_Among_Hispanics_and_Native_Americans …

At last, a critique on twitter that uses a fair estimate of her percent Native American DNA! The test said 6-10 generations ago and you used the median 8 generations ago and even rounded up from 0.39%.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the reason why white people have a percentage of native American DNA is not because we all descend from people who at some point interbred with Amer Indians after the diaspora but that Amer Indians are Eurasian hybrids and only a small percentage of

Her DNA test included all native Americans - including those south of the border. So it’s far more likely that someone in her history fucked a Mexican than a real Native American. As we all know, those Mexicans love to fuck white chics.

I think regardless of if it's 2% or 0.1%, it's ridiculous she'd claim be NA w/one linkage so far back in the family history. My family has very similar stories about having NA lineage. Like her, I'm as white as they come & would never claim it even if I had that 2%.

that are enrolled did and even if I would have been able to get on a roll I wouldn’t have done it. I grew up watching fakers & frauds trying to get money, status or oppression points. If you know anything about the culture you know exactly how wrong this is a day how important it

One more. Knowing kin isn’t just a Cherokee thing, which is why I get it. It’s largely an Appalachian thing as well. We’re all known for closing ranks to outsiders

I drink a 40% single malt from
