I always figured it was a way for a family to gloss over black heritage.
I'm sure that's true, too.
But that door swings both ways, apparently.
There's a little store down the street from my office run by 3 black sisters. They claim Choctaw heritage and have a big map of the Choctaw nation painted on the side of the building.

OT a bit, but natives actually butchered some of my family. They scalped everyone in the settlement (including an unborn child) and sold them to the brits
Anyway, theres a very small chance that I have less than .1% native blood (if any), wonder if I could get away with identifying as one, or get reparations

Nothing that Im aware of. Brits were paying for scalps during the war of 1812 it seems
