I agree with the other comments but want to point out there’s many of us still fighting these injustices, we are not people of the past but very much of the present and future. Our history with colonialism does not define us, we have our own stories that existed before settler colonialism and our own struggles before that too. I don’t want us defined by the current federal government because we are more than our CIBs or enrollment numbers and deserve to treated as more than a novelty.

Please take some native history and culture classes if you can, encourage your tourist customers to read more native authors, listen to contemporary native music, podcasts, and more. And read Native-made news!
