    Are you kidding me?! The person who wrote 20 celebs you didn’t know have native American blood. You had Ben Bratt and said he really doesn’t count? Are you ignorant? His mother is indigenous person of South AMERICA. The original people that lived on the land we call north central and south America are all “native americans”.
