Daria Egereva ... member of the Selkup indigenous group

She's the only one still in jail from a widespread series of arrests of indigenous activists 6 months ago.

The Selkup speak a Uralic language of the Samoyedic branch. We're most familiar with the Finno-Ugric branch of Uralic - Finnish, Estonian & Hungarian - the largest non-Indo-European languages in Europe. The homeland of Uralic languages is in Siberia though, where there is a rich diversity of Uralic languages. Uralic languages probably expanded with master bronze-crafters associated with Seima-Turbino complex of bronze weapons, a style we see from China to Finland.

The first wave of Russia's eastward expansion, and then especially Stalinism were devastating to the stunning linguistic and cultural diversity of Siberia. Uralic, Turkic, Tungusic (related to northern China's Manchu of Qing Dynasty fame), even Eskimo languages, plus the fascinating wealth of Paleo-Siberian languages - completely unrelated language families like Chukotko-Kamchatkan, Nivkh, Yukaghir, and the fascinating Yeneseian, which has influenced almost all the others, is preserved in ancient chinese sources and is now a single language with maybe 10-100 speakers. Oh and it's almost certainly a distant relative of Navajo! For real!

19thC imperialism and then Stalin's Russianization policies left most of these languages extinct, moribund or critically endangered. There is a good chance that Putin's policies will snuff out most of what's left.

Can white people treat any indigenous people ethically? My god, it's been the same story forever.
