About this listen
Why does enrollment matter, and why isn’t self-identification enough?
This episode explains why tribal enrollment is a core function of sovereign tribal governments. We break down how enrollment establishes citizenship, continuity, and political accountability, and why real tribes maintain formal rolls that connect living members to their ancestors. The episode also clarifies how nonprofits and informal groups often avoid enrollment entirely, and why that absence is a critical red flag when evaluating claims of tribal authority.
Understanding enrollment helps allies, institutions, and funders recognize legitimate tribal governments and avoid supporting structures that lack accountability or continuity.
