In fact, Holden’s grandfather, Raul Armenta, sits on the board of the Chumash Tribe in Santa Ynez, California, according to the Post Millennial.

Raul is listed as a “business committee member” who was first elected to the board in 2016 on the tribe’s website.

“He looks forward to continuing the legacy of building a solid economic foundation for future generations of the Chumash tribe,” it reads.
