There’s nothing wrong in speaking out for other groups for as long as it actually corresponds to the current needs of people inside the group, as defined by themselves.
This is what being an ally is all about.
But yes, one should better consult people on what they ask for in the first place.
I dunno mate, seems like I’m the only one in this thread who actually has a source from a native american. @[email protected] talks a big game about respecting native americans and elevating their voices, while denying the existence of the issues they care about and talking over them. Maybe Vtyle should try listening to the people they claim to represent instead of deciding what indigenous people think for them.
You are grouping all indigenous people together by saying “denying the existence of issues they care about and talking over them” I emplore you, who is “they”? Are you implying that all native Americans hold the same beliefs? That they are the same people? I also never claimed to represent native Americans. I would never speak for a culture or peoples I don’t belong to.
No I’m not. You’re just inventing nonsense reasons to “no u” this conversation and justify racism. You’ve read the accounts from the affected communities, because I linked them. You’re just lying.
