kieradoe replied to your post: I can’t believe you as a people have allowed generations of white oppression still have a hold on the entire Native community. I live in the Pacific Northwest and there is a situation happening in Washington with a tribe that is astounding in its ignorance. I don’t think people understand how bad most reservations are a microcosm of all the worlds issues in one small space. In the middle of nowhere. I don’t just mean drug addiction, or sexual abuse. Ghettos aren’t shit compared to the Res.

Basically (I’m not Native) I read it as “you’re all about fighting white people but your people are screwed up, too! How are you going to ignore that and not take responsibility? There’s ignorance in your tribe(s) too!“

That’s how I interpreted it too. But it is hard to converse with that anon about rez struggles when they are ignorant of it. Anon basically asked "how dare all your people not be perfect while demanding rights! and how dare Natives be affected by genocide, relocation, assimilation etc.” :/ hard to have a conversation with that mindset.
