People revere Greta while revering her indigenous peers is too much. Honoring them means learning of their mammoth traumas, and the ways we are complicit. The daily truth of that is too graphic for people with the random, unearned privilege of supremacy/security. Ignoring indigenous realities tilts one out of right relationship with earth, with tragic results (see: now). People who romanticize Native ways who don't make room in their hearts for Native battles are dangerous. All the sage in the world won't purify them, all the dreamcatchers hanging dead from their rearview mirrors
