It just so happens that some of the people who want to be Cherokee but aren't Cherokee are black.
* "Aren't Cherokee" meaning there's no proof of Cherokee heritage.
Again, I'm not saying I agree with them. If I did did say they were wrong, I would say they were wrong to reject people not of Cherokee heritage. White people can't join either, nor any other race than Cherokee.

Cherokees didn't
buy any white people....End of that bullshit argument.
You need to quit running circles and face the fact that these Blacks became
Cherokee when they were "adopted" by that tribe.
If you bought it, then it's fucking yours.
They bought some fucking people and they need to live up to that.
What they are doing is no different than if the US Federal government revoked
the citizenship of all blacks who descended from slaves that didn't have a white ancestor.
Those slaves were taken out of the Non-Native government by the tribe and the
tribe has all the obligations that all other governments have on taking such people.
The blacks were taken by force, they didn't ask to be removed from non-native
land where they would have US citizenship.
If they hate niggas then that's just too fucking bad. They could have left those
people where they were to begin with.
And furthermore, if a exact DNA sequence were defined as being Cherokee then
I'm damn sure that many of the Reds DNA will not be found to be Cherokee either.
The entire notion of a "pure Cherokee" is totally ridiculous.

According to Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) head Larry EchoHawk, the Cherokee Nation is not the historical Cherokee tribe but instead a "successor in interest."[2]

We are willing to bomb the shit out of Libya to liberate people so maybe it's time
to raid these fucking tribes and put an end to this racist shit and make this
entire land whole with equal protection for all citizens.
Deciding citizenship based on race is a Hitler idea that has seen it's time in history.
