Last night at the White House First Lady Jill Biden invited a room full of Democratic Native Americans to participate in what was billed as a “first reception in honor of Native American Heritage Month.” Interior Secretary Deb Haaland spoke at the event, noting several of the Biden administration’s initiatives meant to aid tribes and Indigenous citizens. “Indigenous people and Indigenous knowledge are at the decision making table, and we aren't going back,” the Laguna Pueblo citizen said.

I would think at they could find several Republican, Independents or Libitarian American Indians/Alaska Natives that could have been invited that would have acted appropriately, in accordance with custom and tradition, if they weren't influenced by the government's assimilation efforts (meaning learn how to disrupt a meeting, and protest).
Despite the words in the U.S. Constitution about us, we know how to act in public.
Please show Dr. Jill Biden respect. Yes, she is First Lady, but address her properly, it's First Lady Dr Jill Biden. We have witnessed ongoing disrespect toward women and misogyny among the republicans. Let' not add to it.

More "tacos" references by Nursemaid Jilly. I just hope she remembers to use "indian tacos".
