The racism and discrimination towards Native peoples is an extremely relevant issue as I have personally seen acts of racism towards people of all different races to the extent were some acts of racism have become an almost excepted thing which is saddening to think about.

It is amazing to see the people in this film who admit to suffering from racism and even to being controlled by the government "We'll (the government) make decisions on you'r house, We'll make decisions on what kinds of food you have access to, we'll make decisions" and are standing up to it with non-violent protests showing they have rights.
All the talking of the racism towards people simply because they look different without considering who that person is reminded me of a TED talk I saw to do with stereotyping which I believe is very relevant to the racism towards many indigenous people in Canada.
