I'm an Indian from a reservation in Oklahoma who wants to start a Marxist YT channel, and had two main questions for our supple voiced podcaster.
-
How would an Indigenous person even begin to tackle the ignorance around decolonization, when the ed. system produces people that will go on Twitter and call me a savage or deliberately ask other whites what 'reserves' are, instead of someone who lives on one, just to be spiteful? Americans have voluntarily clinged to an 18th century belief used to justify their settler colonialism without the need for a "Red Scare" towards Indigenous people, maybe my question is how would you get subjects of an Empire to face its historical sins, in a way that humanizes the victims and recontextualizes the stories they've grown up with as facts?

When you're writing a video script, besides having a weekly upload schedule, what keeps you from dropping it and doing something else when you hit a creative roadblock?
My very own response from JT, thank you
