This is what passes for scholarly research in woke academia:
Abstract
Queer, trans, and Two Spirit Native youth are rarely represented in research, with extant evidence continuously pointing out health disparities and pathologizing individual characteristics rather than accounting for the structural aspects of colonial society. Global Indigenous scholars have put forth a holistic conception of social and emotional wellbeing that integrates Indigenous sovereignty, strengths, and cultures, positing that Indigenous health is a culturally bound phenomenon. To move beyond these deficit-based framings and collate available scholarship, the present work presents the results of a scoping review surrounding the social and emotional wellbeing of queer, trans, and Two Spirit Native youth. Informed by the Indigiqueer ecological medicine wheel, the present work includes a breadth of health and wellbeing concepts for QT2S Native youth across micro and macro domains.
Be sure to add “Indigiqueer” to your copy of the Newspeak Dictionary. Don’t forget that it needs to be capitalized to express the required reverence.

“Decolonizing” is a reference to the systematic eradication of Western Civilization in the name of cultural Marxism.
Costume aside, she doesn’t look much like an Indian, but that is not to say she belongs on the Racial Impostor List. She certainly looks more Indian than Elizabeth “Fauxcahontas” Warren.
Democrats think you should be forced to pay off the student loans of slackers who choose to spend years wallowing in indoctrination by pernicious grievancemongers like Autumn Asher BlackDeer rather than getting on with adulthood.
