"There is no such thing as "part - Cherokee.'
Either you're Cherokee or you're not.'
It isn't the quantity of Cherokee blood in you veins that is important, but the quality of it.....your pride in it.
I have seen full-bloods who have virtually no idea of the great legacy entrusted to their care.
Yet, I have seen people with as little as 1/500th blood quantum
who inspire the spirits of their ancestors because
they make being Cherokee a proud part of their everyday life."
