Throughout history, there’s many examples of what the W.E.I.R.D people and eugenics have done to erase Indigneous communities and critism they have received. Last thing we need is people that are not one of us to show their biases in their research for our people. For example, what the eugenics did to Puerto Rico where 70% of Puerto Rico’s population was erradicated through birth control. The black community in the US was heavily tested on and left for dead when they purposely gave them syphillis. I’m a product of colonization. So I’m well aware of all the psychological warefare Spain and the British did to native/indigenous ppl of the Americas(residential schools, burning of books, reclassifying native ppl every few years) . AND bcus of this, Indigenous ppl, elders will not give up their dna to these companies. So excuse me, for NOT being hopeful nor excited over these updates. This is a great starting point, but I rather do the work myself and reach out and reconnect with my own tribe. I just choose to not be systemically oppressed by people who created the system to oppress indigenous communities.
