Small Numbers…make data analysis difficult
...make secondary data difficult to access
Racial Misclassification…deflates our actual numbers
What do you consider your race?
Lack of Data Sharing…makes it difficult to access Tribal figures
Tribal Nation Borders
…federal
…state
…county
do not mirror
Social Norms and Values
…can be inhibitive
Close Knit Communities
…can inflate social stigmas
Community Insulation
…makes us feel safe and protected
