Why is “indigenous” capitalized? I guess it’s like “black”. I do prefer the word compared to that stupid insulting phrase “Native American”, but don’t capitalize it.
Anyway, this is very cool. Maybe someday we’ll be allowed to visit again and see this progress.

Indigenous is a precise term but you’re right it shouldn’t be capitalized. IMO it’s because they don’t teach grammar anymore. Native American is OK but it’s more like the phrase African American.
