      Also fwiw, at least in the south a good number of those mythical native ancestors were likely black. Under Jim Crow laws, anyone with any black ancestors was considered black legally under the law. So a whole bunch of mixed race people that could pass instead said they had native ancestry to avoid being subjected to apartheid

        She submitted a plagiarized recipe for Mexican oatmeal, lifted from the New York Times recipe-of-the-week column.

        Edit: "Mexican" in that it was regular, bland-ass oatmeal with canned corn thrown in or some such. It was a veritable nexus of :lmayo: cultural appropriation, while not even being remotely anchored in culinary reality beyond calipered fever dreams about "the ethnics"
