Indigenous People and Weight

In the intersection between glorifying obesity and indigenous issues:


"Relentless Indigenous Woman
The best weight to lose: opinions of others 🙌

[Image Description:
On a faded pink background is a woman with chocolate brown hair, tan skin that is a gentle peanut butter color. She very has large breasts and her arms are crossed in front of her as if to cover herself. We see her only from the neck down. She is full figured with beautiful curves in her hips, her belly, and her arms.
She wears sky blue underwear on which the words "losing the weight of other people's opinions is the only way you need to lose" printed on them.]

Contributors to reduced life expectancy among Native Americans in the Four Corners States

"We found large and persistent life expectancy gaps between non-Hispanic Native Americans and non-Hispanic Whites in the FCS. This ongoing inequity presents an urgent challenge to the goals of Healthy People 2030 and other calls for racial justice in health and longevity. Our investigation also revealed that three major waves of mortality among Native Americans in the FCS—motor vehicle accidents in early adulthood, liver disease in midlife, and diabetes at older ages—contributed most to the life expectancy gap in 2015. Reducing Native American-White disparities in longevity will require programs and policies that are (a) culturally appropriate and tailored to the needs of Native Americans in the FCS, and (b) address the determinants of accidents, liver disease, and diabetes, such as substance use and obesity. Future policies should also account for fundamental underlying contributors, such as unequal access to healthcare, education, and basic income."

Of course, the negative health outcomes that arise from glorifying obesity in the indigenous will be blamed on "racism" - while real indigenous people suffer.
