Ms. Kimmerer where did you think you "sacred" corn came from? The native people in southern Mexico created maize by artificial selection and cross-breeding of a wild plant. That is "genetic modification".

Creamed corn is murder.

Humans have been modifying plants and animals to meet human needs for longer than recorded history.

Corn is a great example. Wild ears of corn were about the size of your thumb and only contained a few kernels each. Human modification made them the length of your forearm and packed with kernels. That’s not “natural”. That’s human modification of the plant’s genome. She appears to be too stupid to realize it.
