See how J.K. Rowling can appropriate a culture and make money off of it and yet actual Native women like Joy Harjo and Joanelle Romero aren’t even allowed to embrace theirs in this industry?

Joanelle Romero is told by studio executives that nobody wants to see
Native people in a modern narrative and Joy Harjo is told to remove
Native people from her stories if she wants her stories to be a success.

But NATIVE PEOPLE are the ones who aren’t being cooperative when it

comes to representing ourselves in the media? It almost sounds like the
media has a goddamned problem with us. But what else is new?
