Tribal disenrollment is a process by which a Native American individual or entire families lose citizenship or the right to belong within a Native American tribe. This has become a norm in many tribes that have opened casinos.
We've been writing about tribal disenrollment on this blog since 2007. My family was disenrolled by a corrupt enrollment committee of the then Pechanga Band of Luiseno Indians. The tribal chairman is Mark Macarro, who is now the President of the National Congress of American Indians.
A new documentary film on tribal disenrollment YOU'RE NO INDIAN weighted heavily on the most egregious tribe of disenrollers in California, the Chukchansi Band of Indians from Coarsegold and the Washington based Nooksack tribe will premiere at the Palm Springs Film Festival
PLEASE check in with us as we find out more about this documentary and the disgraceful effects on Native Americans stripped of their belonging.
