A Cherokee woman joined Jesse Watters to criticize Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) for refusing to back down on her claim of Cherokee ancestry.
Watters said Warren was recognized by Harvard University as their first minority female faculty member after the 68-year-old applied to the job as a Native American.
“As a mixed Native woman, I get to relive the stereotypes that Warren perpetuates every day,” Rebecca Nagle of Oklahoma told Watters.
“I’m not ‘part-Cherokee’, I am Cherokee,” she said. “[We’re] bit fractions of imagined Indians that used to exist. [Warren should] take responsibility for her false claim.”
Watters pointed out that Trump too has called out Warren for claiming Cherokee ancestry.
“I call her Pocahontas, and that’s an insult to Pocahontas,” he recently said. “She’s a hopeless case.”
