Feather or dot? (Not a quiz.)

As an immigrant, with a British, Indian, and slightly American accent, Annu Palakunnathu Matthew, who lives in Rhode Island, is often questioned about where she is “really from.”
When she says she is Indian, she often has to clarify that she is an Indian from India to clear up the confusion between her type of Indian (from the country of India) and Native Americans, also known as Indians or American Indians.
The confusion between the two Indians was a source of amusement for Matthew and also the central idea for her photography series, An Indian from India, currently on display at the Smithsonian's Beyond Bollywood exhibition.
