This is coming from a native american..

Personally I would tell them that you are 1/16? or 1/32?Im not sure what they would since you have no documentation. If anything become more accultured. A lot of natives (not me in particular however) find someone "playing the native card", as we call it, offensive. Not too offensive I will add, but coming from a very diverse native area, I will say, I respect your decision to try and I believe you should try and learn more. I can honestly say I don't think you will get far without a roll # or tribal ID or something similar. I wont go in to too much detail as a lot of this is personal..but if you want to know more send me a message-I would definiately talk about it. I enjoy talking to people interested in Natives..There aren't too many =)
