This brief article in a magazine intended for African Americans
discusses the growing willingness of African Americans to admit,
and even celebrate, Native American ancestry. Groups such as the
New York-headquartered Northeastern Native American Association
include a number of members with Black ancestry. The article
mentions the Lumbee, who, along with other Eastern tribes,
have been criticized by Western tribes - particularly during
bids for federal recognition - for having Black, White, and Indian ancestry.
