Too bad. So once he donates the million, since she has less American Indian blood that most Americans, she should make amends for claiming American Indian minority status. According to the Native American Rights Fund website, “an Indian is a person who is of some degree Indian blood and is recognized as an Indian by a tribe/village and/or the United States. The Coalition of Bar Associations of Color passed a resolution last year urging law schools to treat the practice of "minority box checking" as "academic ethnic fraud." (Minority box checking--Falsely claiming minority status or multiple minorities.) To get federal college scholarships requires 25% or more to qualify for education grants. To be recognized by an American Indian tribe requires a minimum percentage of that tribal blood. Not every tribe has the same requirements. But the lowest percent is 1/16th or 6.25%.
