Even within #Indigenous people, in North & South America alone there are thousands of Indigenous cultures all with their own histories & practices. There are no super-Indigenous people.
For example I have pretty strong opinions on #Native culture particularly #Mvskoke & nearby similar tribes but even though I have a smidgen of Mexican Indigenous in me, a lot of what I know doesn't necessarily apply to Indigenous people in Mexico, Central/South America. I have learned to defer to them.

Even if you think they are wrong. Hey, we all grow, I am definitely not the person I was even a year ago; hopefully I'm continually learning. We're all #Allies to someone... or hopefully.
I can easily critique my own viewpoints and knowledge about other cultures/ethnicities over time. I know my #Mvskoke and #Jewish cultures/histories to a degree likely beyond others, and neither of those are monolithic, but these are internal discussions, not for others.

WTF people, just as a most basic principle of being an #Ally - when people are xyz culture/ethnicity or whatever and you are not - do not explain their culture, ethnicity, history or anything to them.
I've seen a few examples in recent comments that really boggle the mind. These are racist aggressions, very unhelpful.
No one has the bandwidth to school one by one every example of racist nonsense that comes along, maybe an ally can take that labor when they see it.

The shootings “are not one-offs,” said Jim Bueermann, the former police chief in Redlands, California, who now runs the Future Policing Institute, a research group. “This is clearly developing into a pattern and practice of how they deal with people in the enforcement of immigration laws, and to me that’s the most alarming thing we’re seeing.”

Like all people and organizations when face to face with their own racism, this thought is likely to ruffle feathers, but nonetheless 100% true.
Mastodon gGmbH has a problem with systemic racism at the organizational level.
It's time to make Mastodon friendly to non-white cultures and we need to start at the top.
