A group of students from @CovCathColonels harassed & bothered this Native American protestor at the Indigenous Peoples March. Appalling.

Here’s another video of these kids harassing this Native American protestor. The ignorance, the bigotry, is infuriating. This is not the future of this nation.

To any Indigenous people that may see this video above,
You are loved, you are valued. The unjust treatment of your ancestors was & will always be wrong.

Since @CovCathColonels made their account private after this post here’s their phone number (859) 491-2247.
We must reject the oppression & intimidation of Indigenous people. We must be allies to them as they speak their truths to power.
Apparently @CovCathColonels has now also taken their phone offline. You can email Bob Rowe, the Principal of the school, at browe@covcath.org.
Update: The man is an Omaha elder, his name is Nathan Phillips & he’s a Vietnam War Veteran. Much love & appreciation for his resilience & strength. https://newsmaven.io/indiancountrytoday/news/outrage-as-non-native-youth-wearing-maga-hats-taunt-and-disrespect-native-elder-jy7UVwdg8kK2uvT0L-JOig/
