That Awkward Moment When “Native Kids First” Is Not About Native Kids

When Indigenous people and our issues are misrepresented by those who have little to no knowledge of who we are, it continues a long legacy of systemic abuse, discrimination and racism. It is absolutely abhorrent that the Institute of Liberty is misrepresenting and exploiting our native youth and the Otoe-Missouria tribe. It is even more reprehensible that they are doing so by co-opting the name of the NCAI’s youth initiative, First Kids 1st. The way that the Institute of Liberty is portraying this issue and campaign is deceitful and damaging to both the Otoe-Missouria tribe and Indian Country at large. It needs to stop.

Until now, the Institute of Liberty and their Native Kids First campaign has been able to fly under the radar and escape the notice of Indian Country. But make no mistake. We see you now.

Chin up, love and keep moving. Never lay stagnant, even if you don’t feel like going forward. Like the blood in your veins, we’re meant to flow and that flow alone can heal.

Prime example of how misappropriating native femininity and identities by “playing indian” results in racist attitudes and harmful stereotypes that do play a huge part in the reason why 86% of native women are sexually assaulted by non-native men.

What I wish people would learn when natives or any people of any culture speak out against cultural appropriation is that we live with the consequences of your ignorance.
