Others pointed out it was the activist that approached the young man, not the other way around.
Here’s a hypotheical. At a rally for abortion a Catholic approaches the rallying pro choicers while saying the Rosary. What happens and how does the media portray it?
I pointed out to my husband the Elder was the one who was attempting to intimidate the young man.
It appears the Native American Elder forgot the way Native Americans used to operate: Intimidation and physical harm.
The young man was just standing his ground. It’s only a cringe-worthy moment for those who choose to not see it for what it was: The Elder was pushy.
