I am Scottish decendant on on father’s side and Lakota (Sioux)-enrolled member of Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe-and I don’t think I look very Native at all. I have a light complexion, black hair, and green eyes. I have the bone structure perhaps, but not much else. There is absolutely nothing wrong with being white and to hear people say that and think its ok is really sad. If white folks ran around saying “aww ur just pissed cuz ur pure indian!” That would be considered racist and they’d be ostracized for it. Grow up. And Nick Jonas is the only cute Jonas bro…awwww! Lol

Italian probably accounts for his more exotic features because sothern Italians are sometimes darker and some people even argue that some of them aren’t white. As an American Indian, I’m offended that people think Natives have one general look. Look at Sherman Alexie(Spokane), Wes Studi(Cherokee), and JR Redwater(Lakota), and tell me they aren’t the most diverse looking trio in one race you’ve ever seen! We all look different because each different tribe is technically a different ethnicity. Also, Jonas and other biblical names aren’t necesarily Jewish names. I have a full blood Nez Perce friend whose last name is Moses.
