Contrary to this edit, the Navajo Reservation is not in or near Phoenix, Arizona. Badagnani 20:30, 12 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

Native American edit

I am sorry, but how far can this be pushed?

Robert Tree Cody is the adopted son of the actor Iron Eyes Cody and Cody's wife Bertha Parker. This is the Adopted son of Iron Eyes Cody who claimed his entire life that he was Native American but he was not Native American at all. Iron Eyes Cody was Italian (Sicilian parentage). What you are left with is the Adopted son of an Italian and a Native American. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.184.66.81 (talk) 07:13, 10 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

You're completely omitting his biological parents though, both of whom were Native Americans. Also, even though Iron Eyes Cody had no indigenous background, he married a Native American woman and both of them raised their adopted sons to identify with being indigenous. --Ismail (talk) 05:17, 30 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
