1/4 blood quota is what most tribes require to be tribal members. If you have children, its worth the effort to make sure the kids are listed by the tribe even if they don't make the blood quota. Some schools get extra money on decedents for certain programs.
- fapjacks 11y agoI believe for the Crow tribe, it's 1/8 blood to enroll. If I had had children with my ex-wife, our kids would have been able to enroll, and I would have enrolled them. You're absolutely right, that there are some good benefits to being enrolled in a tribe.
- protomyth 11y agoInteresting, the Chippewa go with the 1/4 rule, and I'm 1/8 so I got all the "fun" of the Rez and not much of the upside. Plus, it was a Dakota rez instead of home country. Sorry it didn't work out.
