<p>I’m part African American and 1/4th Native American. I have 1/8th Choctaw blood and 1/8th Apache blood. My great great great grandfather was Cochise (Is famous and has been played in many western movies). My grandmother lived on a reservation for about 15 years of her life. She passes down many stories about her life on the reservation and about our heritage in general. Was it wrong for me to mark African American and Native American on my application if I’m technically not a registered member? You have to be 1/4th Apache to be registered in the Apache tribe, but once I graduate high school I am allowed to be considered a registered member of the Choctaw tribe.</p>
