To be a member of a tribe, to claim being a member of a tribe, you have to be enrolled. When I talk about my native heritage, I clearly state that I am not enrolled but connected and claimed by my family. There is a difference, and that difference matters to many. If you are actively making that claim that I said I was a member, you are causing direct harm. If you are the member that reached out to our tribe, I invite you to reach directly out to me. #indigenous #patawomeck #Governor #candidate
