Native American
The topic is Native American.
This is an amazing story. I REALLY hope it’s done right. I don’t know anyone on it, but I hope it has Natives involved. Not just speaking to Tribal officials. NATIVE WRITERS & PRODUCERS.

What little people know about the Trail of Tears and Indian Removal, they usually conflate with one Native American nationÑthe Cherokees. So many Native nations were removed and Andrew Jackson had absolutely nothing to do with most. Each had their own unique and tragic experience pic.twitter.com/ulqtC4vyRc

On this day in 1912, Jim Thorpe of the Sac and Fox Nation won the gold medal in the decathlon at the Olympics by absolutely crushing his competition. This Native American man remains the greatest athlete to ever live in my opinion! pic.twitter.com/MiJfoGuAD8

ICYDK: Molly of Denali is written and voiced by Alaska Native people who are connected to their communities. I showed the episode ÒGrandpaÕs DrumÓ to my 82 yo dad (boarding school survivor) and he was speechless with the accurate portrayal of our people and the land. #PBS https://t.co/HD5s4v8iuU

I would love to see this memorial go because I hate the Oklahoma Land Run with the fury of a thousand suns. Hated the Land Run reenactments I was forced to participate in as a kid to celebrate the theft of Native American land by dressing up as ÒpioneersÓhttps://t.co/TQ0IZmpytS

Washing hands and staying hydrated? The spread of #COVID-19 is bringing to light the social inequities that exist across the U.S. where Native Americans are 19 times more likely to lack indoor plumbing than white Americans. #CoronaVirus https://t.co/3EYxQ73sQJ
