Starting to see a pattern here...
Harvard Law School currently has only one tenured minority woman, Gottlieb Professor of Law Elizabeth Warren, who is Native American. The racial makeup of the HLS Faculty has been an issue before as well: in 1989, Harvard dismissed Weld Professor of Law Derrick A. Bell after 18 years of teaching because the noted expert on race and law refused to end his leave in protest of the absence of minority women on HLS faculty.

Minority at the University of Pennsylvania? Say it isn't so!!The University of Pennsylvania document -- a report published in 2005, 10 year after Warren left to teach at Harvard Law school – indicates she was a minority faculty member and had won a teaching award. The report stated only eight of the 112 awards give out during a 13-year span had gone to minority teachers.

But Paul Reed, a Utah genealogist who is a fellow at the American Genealogical Society, said he found primary documentation that shows Warren’s great-great-great grandfather Jonathan Crawford served in a Tennessee militia unit that rounded up Cherokees before they were force-marched to Oklahoma in the infamous “Trail of Tears.”
“Jonathan H. Crawford did serve in the Indian wars,” said Reed. “He is listed as serving in the company that rounded up Cherokees.”

I never said I wasn't partisan now did I? I'm just pointing out that YOUR partisanship is getting in the way of you seeing the truth in this story. Prove it's not the truth and I'll shut up.Soulshiner wrote:

Can I call myself an African American if my great great great grandma was African? Would you object to someone (who's not a Dem of course), checking a minority box on an application of any kind if they were only 1/32 minority?Wily Fox aka Angela wrote:

Two points to your original post:
(1) The current Constitutional Chief of the Cherokee Nation, Bill John Baker, is 1/32 Cherokee. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_John_Baker
(2) as regards to actions of ancestors, I don't think you can hold someone accountable for their great grandfather. That is really grasping at straws.
