I couldn’t help but share this for the unintentional absurdity of what happens when you go so woke that you come out the other side as a genderless, non-binary blob. This woman is an Aboriginal academic. Literally right above and below this are (older) articles saying “woman” and “mother”, lol… - Kotaku In Action 2

In the US, the tribes are allowed to identify their own members. So whether you qualify varies widely depending on what tribe you claim to belong to. Some enforce a blood quantum. Others do not. They tend enforce it if there's some casino money at stake... otherwise some rando tribe has little incentive not to give you paperwork. It's no skin off their back.

I have never a seen a "college Indian" live on a reservation. And I didn't go to college with any rez Indians. Poverty is endemic in those reservations, so living there would be a reasonable proxy for poverty, if not perfect.

Poor white who are not Indian get nothing, but that's par for the course.
