Who Counts as Indian in Post Apartheid Virginia.pdf
I would imagine some of us have come across this Thesis online written by Jay Hansford C. West, PhD of University of NC at Pembroke.
It should be noted that Dr. West is an enrolled member of the Monacan Nation, and direct descendant of Opechancanough of the Pamunkey Nation.

Enjoy the read…
