Maybe white people can start their own tribes too?
so what’s the deal? They want to be treated as if they are an Indian reservation???
Here in NJ a group of mulattos (with no Indian DNA) have been trying (unsuccessfully) for years to get federal recognition as an Indian tribe. The NY and NJ governments recognize them (they live along the shared border), but the feds won’t (no ka-ching! for them). These whackos actually have pow-wows, festivals, and such - pure nonsense.
