She claims to be AAPI.  Nice try Hitler.

Really? I did look around and wasn't able to find that. She was born in American Samoa, but I found no claim to AAPI.

Please post a link for confirmation.

How evil and xenophobic do you have to be to deny a woman her heritage.  Polynesian on her dad's side and 26% Southeast Asian as well.  It was on Dr. Gates PBS show.  I won't be platforming your hatred any longer.  Good night, sir.

So you get to determine what race someone is? We are talking % of race to determine if someone is actually a minority?   You get to determine is someone is white?  Black?  Asian?  Sounds like something out of 1935 Germany.

You've made two points quite clear here:

• % of race doesn't count
• % of race does count.

Make up your mind, dummy. Or exit - stage left.

Although I will follow up with watching the Gates PBS show. I'm interested to see what that's all about.

Oh... and one last point. I don't hate you at all. But I didn't appreciate you calling me Hitler, either.

I wondered about that, too.

I dug around a bit (not too hard) and was only able to find out that her mother of German descent, born in Indiana and grew up in Michigan. While her father is of Samoan and European ancestry.

Seems like something roughly like 75% European ancestry - which I guess I would consider white. But I could be wrong.

(Again, that's based on what limited information I was able to find. Certainly nothing definitive.)

Please contact Elizabeth Warren and inform her of her lack of Native American heritage since it isn't but a fraction of acceptable according to your rules.

She's not NA, nor does she claim to be. But she does have NA ancestry - which is cool for her. It's nothing to bicker about.

Heritage is so much more about honor and respect than anything else.

You disrespectful children have so much to learn.

I think claiming American Indian on your state Bar registration is more than claiming ancestry. At least she has since apologized to the Cherokee nation.

Is the state Bar registration portion actually true?

How would it be more than claiming ancestry?

Elizabeth Warren registered for bar as 'Native American' – report

Senator Elizabeth Warren was once again forced to address her past claims of Native American heritage on Tuesday, as the Washington Post reported the senator and Democratic candidate for president listed her race as “American Indian” on her registration for the Texas state bar more than three decades ago.

The yellow registration card, which is dated April 1986, was filled out in blue ink and signed by Warren, the Post reported. The paper said her office did not dispute the card’s authenticity.

Short google search.

https://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2012/05/article-cites-elizabeth-warren-as-first-woman-of-color-hired-by-harvard-law-school

A 1997 piece from the Fordham Law Review lists Massachusetts Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren as the "first woman of color" hired by Harvard Law School, according to reports.

The article, which was unearthed by Politico, was titled  "Intersectionality and positionality:  Situating women of color in the affirmative action dialogue." The author, Laura Padilla, who now serves as the Associate Dean of California Western Law School in San Diego, CA., reportedly based her description on a phone conversation with then Harvard Law spokesman, Mike Chmura.

...  "This new revelation that Harvard characterized Elizabeth Warren as a 'woman of color' in the context of affirmative action is a clear indication that something is deeply wrong" said Brown's campaign manager Jim Barnett.

"As we all now know, Professor Warren is not a minority, her ridiculous claims notwithstanding. She is certainly not a 'woman of color.' This disturbing development illustrates why it is critically important that Warren, Harvard and the University of Pennsylvania stop stonewalling, release her personnel records and come clean about why Warren is continuously represented as a minority hire at these schools."

So even though she denies, it appears she allowed Harvard to think she was a woman of color, why?   To get and keep a job there of course.   That's my opinion.   But it seems well informed to me obviously.

You should have a discussion with MSPART.

You'd be perfect together... seems like you both think you can figure out the race problem.
