SilverSpook is a communist Native Hawaiian and a pretty prominent one, but are there any others I can follow? I’m in Canada, and when it comes to communism in a colonized country, first nations matters must be one of the first things to consider.

I most want to hear a socialist indigenous perspective on whether they reconciliation between settlers and natives is even possible, or if they honestly just want the people who are here due to colonialism and the settler-run post colonial government (me included mind you) to GTFO. Or if not, in places like Canada or the US indigenous people they’re only 1% of the population, how they think socialism should work that’s in the best interests of them, how land ownership should work between them and non-Indigenous people. If anyone has a link to what an actual indigenous person has to say about that, that’d be great.

    Hawai’i aswell i think aswell is a unique example, not that the same issues don’t occur here in Australia because of course it does but Hawai’i is tiny and a tourist spot, so i can very easily imagine that native hawaiians grow up claustrophic and their culture suffocating and permutated into authentic hawaiian experiences for 4999 return trip luxury hotel, tiki tiki (is that what they’re called?) shows that have nothing to do with hawaiian culture so it’s like propping up a bloated corpse compared to australia and canada where those genocides tried to stamp it all out and ignore it until recently
