Personal I look very very stereotypically Scots/Irish but I also have a lot of Native American ancestry. As sad as it makes me to say I've had a far easier path in live than my cousins who were undeniably Native but from an extremely similar background and level of income growing up, in a 10 mile radius of each other. I was certainly treated differently then them.
