"Listen to Native voices," I was angrily told by leftists who listened to exactly one Native voice, an academic in Alberta, before deciding how to feel about Warren. Turns out Native voices aren't monolithic & also don't suspiciously align with the GOP's racist attacks on Warren.https://twitter.com/jbendery/status/1081189135166115840 …

There are many Native voices rightfully calling out Warren. Do more research, dont erase Native people from discourse because it is inconvenient.

There are more Native peoples interviewed for this piece than has ever been for any outlet. This is the opposite of erasing Native voices. You may not agree with Native voices in this article but don’t erase them either. We need more articles like this w/a diversity of NA voices

Im specifically criticizing David's framing/presentation of this article. David says people "listened to exactly one Native voice." This is false. And it is erasing the voices of Native folks who have legitimate concerns with Warren.

this is just my anecdotal life-based story, fwiw. i really think warren miscalculated badly on this, and rather than find native voices who say it's okay, the better move is to let trump embarrass himself by going at it in his normal, repulsive way.https://twitter.com/gnocchiwizard/status/1074181952247394304 …

native communities are on really really hard times and i think it's weird for warren to even bring up her distant heritage if that's not accompanied with a very robust platform to improve their material circumstances.

But you claim that people who have qualms with Warren have "listened to exactly one Native voice." It seems you are are saying Native voices are a monolith minus one. Your above tweet seems to be alleging Native concerns are some sort of rightwing conspiracy.

I like some of Warren's positions as well, but dont do this.
