Native American population jumps to largest size in modern history, census shows

This, family's written history started around 1650ish. We have ancestry from two separate eastern tribes but also have Irish and German as we moved west where we currently reside. Genetically enough quantum to be card carrying members of the original and local tribes without our CBID. But not enough to receive support from the BIA.

We essentially look like white natives with blue eyes and red/blonde hair in the mix. Easiest way to describe it is like Logic the rapper with his strong African facial features while having white skin.

Due to the current stigma of appropriation we don't talk about it anymore and I'm probably the last in the line to have any verbal heritage left regarding the matter..
