my tribal affiliation is actually through the muskogee creek which is my mother's side. the reason the wrote the book i'm a student of federal policy. and i realize that i could tell a personal story about the two different ways that land was allotted. one is a cherokee freedmen, blood or blood quantum tribal members saying what had happened to the land and their racial identity as a result of and these federal policies and these federally imposed racial categories. over 130 years. because both sides of the family still own the land, but we are a rainbow nation unto our ourselves. so our racial identity spans that of the u.s. we are white, black, red, a little bit of everything. so the judgment of the cherokee doesn't affect me because most people don't realize you can only have one tribal affiliation. i may be part cherokee and muskogee creek and i can say that, but the federal government does not allow me to have more than one tribal affiliation. so in fact the decision doesn't affect me. what's sad about it is that the way the census was written, the one drop rule was
