Terms citing this source

Indigenous Use

“These factors make the words 'Indigenous' and 'Aboriginal' identities, not adjectives, and NAJA urges outlets to capitalize these terms in order to avoid confusion between indigenous plants and animals and Indigenous human beings. Avoid referring to Indigenous people as possessions of states or countries.”
