Please read Native American identity and Determining Native American and Indigenous Canadian identities. Native American identity is a complex and political identity that involves being a member of a tribe. Online sources do not state that Kali Reis is a member of an established tribe. While online sources can verify that she claims to be of Cherokee descent, none of them can substantiate the claim by listing a specific Cherokee tribe from which she descends. The group, Seaconke Wampanoag, is not federally recognized or even state-recognized as being a Native American tribe; however, a Rhode Island house bill was introduced and is sitting in committee to try to fast-track the group to be a Rhode Island state-recognized tribe. If the Nipmuc Nation, any of the established Cherokee or Wampanoag tribes listed Reis as being a member or a descendent on their websites or publications, that would be verification of her being part of their tribes or being a descendant, as opposed to simply identifying as such or claiming as such (a widespread phenomenon throughout the country). In a nutshell, it's not who you claim, it's who claims you. Yuchitown (talk) 15:13, 6 November 2022 (UTC)Yuchitown[reply]
The only supporting sources for Kali having "attended and competed" in Powwows when she was younger, are her own claims she made in various interviews. Is it standard Wikipedia practice to accept someone's own personal claims about themselves as a reliable source? 142.113.188.162 (talk) 20:29, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
