250 words, detailed, demonstrate critical and original thinking, show understanding of the assigned material, are well-argued, and written clearly. In the context of the history of the treatment of Native Americans, Garroutte points out that “Indian people are often heard to complain that they constitute the only racial group that is required to produce documentation of their identity—a standard that many or most members of other racial groups need not (or could not) meet” (“Enrollees” 29). If it was required, how would you or could you produce documentation of your racial/ethnic identity? What are the challenges/problems involved with producing and providing this documentation?
