Original Note:
The claim that the actor for Sokka is not Indigenous came from a tweet in 2022. https://twitter.com/7genvoices/status/1480414596489879556 The actor is a member of the Southern Cherokee Nation of Kentucky, an unrecognized tribe. Over 200 tribes are unrecognized in America. It does not mean that the actor isn't Indigenous. https://www.npr.org/2021/04/17/988123599/unrecognized-tribes-struggle-without-federal-aide-during-pandemic https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unrecognized_tribes_in_the_United_States
