I have called the tribes and NONE of the "NDNS" that are advertised are enrolled. In fact the one that calls himself 2 feathers is lying about being a member of a membership tribe! The membership tribe was not happy when I called and asked about a bout a man claiming to be one of there members, when all he has to do is pay the membership fee.
I tried to contact: Betsy Bolger Paulet to ask what gives her the right to exploit my culture but I cannot find any contact info. If anyone can find a phone number I will gladly give Betsy a call!

And this is the Facebook and website for Deer Speaks Softly (Meriel Henson), who believes her family heritage is Mohawk:
I believe my family Heritage is Mohawk. Grand-Father has gifted me the power to create, I do so in Honor of our Ancestors
