Moderator, the Star-Bulletin now denies he said what they said he said, they even quoted him... so I guess you can pull this mis-labeled thread or add {redacted, now says he didn't say it}
"Churchill went on to say that he is an associate member of the Keetoowah tribe and that associates are enrolled in the band after their genealogy has been vetted by the enrollment office. He said that he is less than one-quarter Indian, so he does not qualify to be a full member."
Whether he said it or not, he's not an American Indian. Someone has traced his ancestry back to Europe on every lineage.
Ward Churchill is a fraud and an effete poseur, pure and simple.
