Marital endogamy refers to the practice of selecting a spouse from within one's own social or cultural group. In this example, the Native American family is encouraging their children to select a partner from the same tribe, which is an example of marital endogamy. This does not necessarily imply prejudice toward other ethnic groups, nor does it necessarily involve conscious efforts at promoting antiracism or symbolic ethnicity.
