The 生産者 of several films featuring 星／主役にするs like Elliot Page, 56-year-old Heather Rae 現在／一般に serves on the 学院 of 動議 Pictures' Indigenous 同盟, and once 長，率いるd the Sundance 学校／設ける's Native American program.

Heather Rae, a filmmaker who 現在／一般に serves on the 学院 of 動議 Pictures' Indigenous 同盟 and once 長，率いるd the Sundance 学校／設ける's Native American program, has been （刑事）被告 of 偽のing her Native American 遺産

Now, によれば （人命などを）奪う，主張するs from the 部族の 同盟 Against 詐欺s [TAAF],? it appears that Rae is the 最新の 人物／姿／数字 to be outed as a 'Pretendian' - a 称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 for a person who 誤って （人命などを）奪う，主張するs to have Indigenous 家系 - with the group 供給するing 国勢（人口）調査 記録，記録的な／記録するs and birth 証明書s that go 支援する hundreds of years to support their （人命などを）奪う，主張するs.

A 報告（する）／憶測 輪郭（を描く）ing that 研究 告発（する），告訴（する）／料金s: 'Heather Rae has built a long and impressive 再開する as a Cherokee 生産者, positioning herself as perhaps the central 人物／姿／数字 in Native American マスコミ 生産／産物, sitting on boards and 事実上の／代理 as a gatekeeper for Native artists.?

The 報告（する）／憶測 proceeds to 供給する a 1969 離婚 証明書 from both of Rae's parents, Vernon and Barbara Bybee, in which they are 名簿（に載せる）／表（にあげる）d as white.?

When 投機・賭けるing その上の 負かす／撃墜する the figurative rabbit 穴を開ける 詳細（に述べる）ing Rae's bloodline, TAAF 公式の／役人s said that it becomes? ますます （疑いを）晴らす that?neither parent sported any sort of 関係 to the tribe that their daughter now （人命などを）奪う，主張するs.

国勢（人口）調査 記録，記録的な／記録するs goi ng 支援する as far as the 1700s show that on her father's 味方する, one ancestor arrived from England in Virginia before the 巡礼者s.?

As for her mother - whom, によれば Rae, was the source of her Cherokee 遺産 - 文書s show little to no?証拠 of any Cherokee 関係 どれでも.

The 報告（する）／憶測 追加するs of her distinctly 'Anglo-American' roots: 'Her father's 味方する was まず第一に／本来 Mormons who have lived in Utah and Idaho since the 中央の-19th century. \

記録，記録的な／記録するs その上の show how Rae's ancestors lived in lands which were 歴史的に part of the Cherokee Nation, such as Kentucky and Tennessee, but were 占領するing the 領土 as white, European 植民／開拓者s.

'Rae's 広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な grandparents, Byrum 物陰／風下 Bybee (1799-1864) and Elizabeth 小道／航路 (1802-1867) were the first to make the move West as Mormon 陸路の 開拓するs from Kentucky.?

記録，記録的な／記録するs show how Rae's ancestors lived in lands which were 歴史的に part of the Cherokee Nation, such as Kentucky and Tennessee, but were 占領するing the 領土 as white 植民／開拓者s

Seen here are more 文書s that 恐らく disprove Rae's （人命などを）奪う，主張するs 関心ing her 遺産

'Her paternal grandmother, Ethel Harper Bybee, is the 広大な／多数の／重要な-granddaughter of English 移民，移住（する） and Mormon 開拓する Thomas Harper, who was a proponent of polygamy.'

The 文書 その上の 詳細（に述べる）s how Rae's earliest known patriarch あられ／賞賛するd from?England, and married a 16-year-old bride in Salt Lake City in 1883 while married to Rae's 広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な grandmother, whose ancestors 'are almost 完全に from the British 小島s, and most were English.'

'She is truly an Anglo-American.'

Her father's 味方する - which Rae never （人命などを）奪う，主張するd was 責任がある her 'half Cherokee' 遺産 - were 大部分は white Mormons, によれば the 報告（する）／憶測, which was published online on March 11.

It also 含むs more than a dozen of 文書s dating 支援する to the 1700s that all 示す that every person in Rae's family identified themselves as white.?

文書s 特記する／引用するd by the 機関?- which is 仕事d with keeping tabs on the ますます ありふれた 'Pretendian' practice - 含むd 離婚 記録，記録的な／記録するs, birth and death 証明書s, 軍の 登録 cards, and even genealogical 報告（する）／憶測s that show no 外見 of any Native American デオキシリボ核酸.

The TAAF's director Lianna Costantino has since 確認するd the 報告（する）／憶測's legitimacy, and that her 機関 was 責任がある the 研究.

In a 声明 Sunday, the rep decried Rae for her 申し立てられた／疑わしい 行為, 非難する that her and others' 活動／戦闘s 害（を与える） the already disenfranchise Native American community.

'存在 an American Indian person is not just about who you （人命などを）奪う，主張する to be, it is about who （人命などを）奪う，主張するs you,' she said, before 追加するing, 'It's much more than just race. We are 国民s of 君主 nations. 存在 an Indian is a 合法的な, political distinction.'

Authors of the 報告（する）／憶測 did 譲歩する that there is a slight 可能性 that Rae's （人命などを）奪う，主張する of Cherokee 降下／家系 lies with her 広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な grandmother on her mother's 味方する, Jane E Lassiter (seen here), but said that 記録，記録的な／記録するs 示す that Lassiter was 100 パーセント white

Rae - whose real last 指名する is Bybee 同様に - had 以前 （人命などを）奪う，主張するd she was half-Cherokee, 説 that 'my mother was Indian and my father was a cowboy.'

Several news 出口s have repeated this （人命などを）奪う，主張する, 特記する／引用するing the 生産者 as having a Cherokee mother.

That said, authors of the 報告（する）／憶測 did 譲歩する that there is a slight 可能性 that?Rae's （人命などを）奪う，主張する of Cherokee 降下／家系 lies with her 広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な-広大な／多数の／重要な grandmother on her mother's 味方する,?Jane E Lassiter.

Lassiter was born in South Carolina?1807 and died in Oklahoma in?1889. At the time, the area was considered Indian 領土.?

Her father, Archibald Lassiter, born in North Carolina in 1775, was a white 植民／開拓者 awarded?Cherokee lands in Georgia as part of a 1832 宝くじ after 'the 除去 of Cherokees from their 母国s,' the 報告（する）／憶測 明言する／公表するs.

This 宝くじ, the TAAF 令状s, was 'only open to 非，不，無-Cherokees.'

The group 追加するs?that winning such a 宝くじ, is anything, serves as '最終的な proof of the ancestor NOT 存在 Cherokee' and shows Rae's?family stories 'to have no basis in fact.'

The group 追加するs that 'even if Archibald was 1/8th Cherokee as （人命などを）奪う，主張するd by his 子孫s,' it would make Rae only 1/2048th Cherokee.?

'She has more Pennsylvania Dutch (早期に German 移民，移住（する）) 家系 than that ? which is not a lot either compared to her British 家系,' the 報告（する）／憶測 snipes.

DailyMail.com reached out Rae's 弁護士／代理人／検事 Sunday for comment on the TAAF's （人命などを）奪う，主張するs and supporting 研究, but did not すぐに receive a 返答.

As 以前 について言及するd, she was brought on by the 学院 last year to 仲買人 an 協定 between the 動議 picture 巨大（な） and Littlefeather, who w as blacklisted in Hollywood for appearing on Brando's に代わって to 拒絶する／低下する his award while （人命などを）奪う，主張するing she was Apache.?

Rae has three children - the oldest of which is 20-year-old Dexter 星／主役にする Johnny Sequoyah.

The model's 活動／戦闘s served to 最高潮の場面 Native-American activism that had been 渦巻くing at the time, with her defi ant 活動／戦闘 since staying at the 最前部 of the 集団の／共同の American?consciousness?for １０年間s after.

However, in October, after 類似の hoaxes had already come to light, it was 明らかにする／漏らすd that Littlefeather too was a pretender.

'It's a 嘘（をつく）,' her sister Trudy Orlandi told the San Francisco Chronicle late last year after her death at age 75.

'My father was who he was. His family （機の）カム from Mexico. And my dad was born in Oxnard.'

Sister Rosalind Cruz concurred, 'It is a 詐欺. It's disgusting to the 遺産 of the 部族の people. And it's just... 侮辱ing to my parents.'

As for Rae - who has a tattoo of a Cherokee corn goddess and joined the 学院 of 動議 Picture Arts and Sciences in 2016 - it remains to be seen how her status as a 主要な 人物／姿／数字 in the Native American activism scene will be 影響する／感情d by TAAF's 発覚s.

Apart from 2016's Tallulah 星／主役にするing transgender actor Page, Rae has produced a variety of processive 作品 - 含むing a 最近の 事業／計画（する）, Fancy Dance, that was partly 基金d by the Cherokee Nation.

The film is about a Native American woman who 誘拐するs her niece from the girl’s white grandparents, and 首相d earlier this year at Sundance Film Festival.?

Such 作品 show that Rae had continued to lean ひどく her 'Indian' 家系 over the course of her multi-１０年間 producing and directing career, にもかかわらず not 公式に 存在 an 入会させるd member of any 部族の nation.?

In 新規加入 to the high-profile position she enjoys on the Indigenous 同盟 - one of the most important organizations in the world when it comes to Native American outreach 成果／努力s - she also?作品 as a 'narrative change strategist' for IllumiNative, an 'unapologetically ambitious and innovative Native women-led' racial and social 司法（官） organization.
