of
sovereignty and cultural acceptance often affect Native people on a
personal
level. Many individuals must search for life’s greatest
moments—marriage,
children, etc.—within the confines of blood quantum.
This government-mandated system, which defines citizenship by how much
“Indian blood” someone has, leads many Native people to question their
cultural
worth, asking, Is my identity in my blood?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
