Re: native americans
If you are an enrolled member of a recognized tribe or band, you should ask either the tribal administration or the BIA office with jurisdiction over its affairs. The rights and privileges of Native Americans vary greatly; for example, native Hawaiians have special rights in Hawaii that are quite different than, say, Eskimos in Alaska or Paiutes in Nevada.
