    A group of my Indigenous colleagues and I put voice to a feeling we've all experienced at multiple points in our journeys, and I wanted to get it down before I lost it. It may have already been defined elsewhere, and it's going to evolve as I explore it - but this is a start.pic.twitter.com/DtbKpZtqXi

        We explored the idea that you can experience this exhaustion at a very young age. And how much of a relief it is to run into people (like my colleagues) who already 'speak the language' and have the context, so you can fully engage right away.

        The group I was discussing this idea with was a group of 5 Indigenous people, 4 from mainland, one Hawaiian. Out of 450 plus scholars, we found each other. But of course we did. That's what we do. Lol

        We also talked about how the point of a given original conversation can be lost, due to the length of time it takes to do the translating - therefore, the initial reason for the labor is lost. Frustrating. This is simply an idea I wanted to share, I'm sure many on my feed

        are familiar with, coming from your backgrounds. We wanted to put a name to it. Exploring more on it as it evolves.

        Clearly we’ve hit on something, considering the response to this. Trust I’ll be getting this down on paper soon, fam.

        I bet a lot of indigenous people in the U$ are facing this now, more than ever, with at least part of the media saying the Covington Kid was "right" and the indigenous chief "wrong," saying we should see "all the context" of the video...which changes nothing.

        I’m a white immigrant. My children were 1, 5, and 7, when we arrived. They were educated in Virginia and I cannot ever remember any homework coming home about the Indigenous people, other than Pocohontas and John Smith. A very “white” version.

        So tiring. But good to have a name for it so we don't think it's something we're imagining.
