I'm 100% Indian free, and proud of it!

great grandmother was full blood Cherokee . So that makes me an 1/8 if my math is correct. I think that’s why I can’t grow any crazy facial hair lol . Wish I was more in tune with my roots . Strange you say that. Im the same 1/8th Cherokee and all I can grow is a nasty mustache LOL

Someone asked me about it in reference to Indian heritage and I couldn’t understand his point between facial hair and Indians and then we went on a google spree . Turns out you can’t find many pictures of Indians with facial hair cuz they didn’t grow any !

Can’t grow a full beard and have 13 chest hairs.

Very cool photo J.P. Do you know what year that was? Don't know what year. That was my grandfather's parents on my mom's side. Not really on topic, but here's a photo of my grandmother's father at the general store in Josephine, TX. His father came here in a covered wagon. Can't remember if my great-grandfather was born when his father made the trip. That's him in the coveralls next to the guy in the suit.
The solution to any problem - work, love, money, whatever - is to go fishing, and the worse the problem, the longer the trip should be. --John Gierach

My dad always told me we had a Cherokee Indian from a couple generations back but I don’t really know for sure.

We are German and American Indian akin to the Potawomi tribe. We have pictures of our great relatives.
I make jokes that I'm "GremIndian...born to hate myself." If you think about it, you'll get it.

I think there's a lot of people who claim native American blood who would really be surprised if they had their DNA checked. (Like Elizabeth Warren)
Biden famously said in the New York Observer, “I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
