    Met Museum's 'Apache' curator is accused of lying about Native
    American roots

    Patricia Marroquin Norby is accused of faking her Apache
    roots

    She is the curator of Native American art at the Metropolitan
    Museum

    . . .

    And yet ANOTHER one.

    There are Apaches/Navajo/Ute/Seminole/etc still in
    existence, still prominent. Alas there are clearly
    too many non-natives who like to PRETEND they have
    blood/cultural relation - and make MONEY from the
    scam. The howlies rarely look or see ... just assume
    nobody would ever lie about such a thing because
    wondering would seem "racist".
