This is about the fact that indigenous people make up a disproportionate amount of the military population

But when talking to people in general, how do you open dialogue with not just indigenous, but also black and Latino/Chicano veterans and younger people trying to join? A lot of people are lured in by poverty, others are looking for discipline or they have strict families who try to force/impose it.

Is there any advice on having these conversations? I believe it's important to be respectful and mature about it, to not go on lecturing and complaining.

That aside, I don't have the time to check rn, but is that speech from the guy from that one documentary "National Bird"?

Looking at the trailer, I don't think so. I wanna say it was a Desert Storm vet?
