If it means anyone gets special treatment, grants, rights, gifts, awards, funds or significant recognition ... and especially if it will mean millions of dollars in profits, income or wealth ... by all means yes card any individual that claims indigenous heritage.

It would put a stop to professionals, academics, writers, performers, artists and politicians from taking advantage of false native heritage to gain an unfair and illegitimate advantage in their field .... and at the worst become and act as a representative of the people they have a hand in oppressing
