Before it became known what Ancestry.com was doing with DNA test results, I had mine tested. It was a family legend that we had a little Cherokee or maybe Freedman Cherokee in us. Neither one showed up in my results. Well, today I got an email from Ancestry that they'd reviewed and revised the results. No change. I can't see any revision at all other than maybe a minor change in percentages. We're all northern European. I'm soooo disappointed to not be Woke. Not.

No DNA test but my 5x great grandfather was 1/4 Shawnee . . . no biggy . . . didn't want to go to Harvard anyway.

It appears as though it has nothing to do with your genetics.


Woke (/ˈwoʊk/), as a political term originating in the United States, refers to a perceived awareness of issues concerning social justice and racial justice. It derives from the African-American Vernacular English expression "stay woke", whose grammatical aspect refers to a continuing awareness of these issues.

But do you "Feel" like a Cherokee?

Feelings are far more important than DNA anyway.

I did my Census 2 months ago and told them I felt like a box turtle, and insisted that they write it down.


If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

That's fancy talk for 'what can I get for free and how can I commit crimes without going to jail?'

Seems to be a lot of caucasians involved in those activities as of late.

My father did the Ancestry DNA test before he passed and according to them we are 100% European.
I guess the fact that second G-Grandmother on his paternal side was 100% Cherokee and fourth G-Grandmother on maternal side was 100% Crow is irrelevant.

You can still self-identify.

Born in the USA? If you answered yes you are Native American. Same as Geronimo.

I was hoping mine turned up Konta Kinte was a distant relative so I could get some free schit. But alas, the Irish and Scandinavian was all that was there. 😢

I can remember the times when folks disavowed having any Indian blood. But, that came to a screeching halt when all the oil money started coming to the tribes. Then the same folks were doing an Elizabeth Warren.
