On the second night of the Republican National Convention, Navajo Nation
Vice President Myron Lizer made his appearance as the sole Native citizen
scheduled to speak at the four-day event. Lizer, a conservative Republican
and Baptist preacher, put forth his best effort as he tried to spin
Democratic legislative achievements and hollow gestures from President
Donald Trump as great strides for Indian Country. He did all of this with a
straight face, which was honestly kind of impressive.
“Our Creator placed us here and knew for such a time as this, we would have
an opportunity for an appeal to Heaven—you see, our people have never been
invited into the American dream,” Lizer said in a recorded address from
Shiprock on the Navajo Reservation (Dinétah). He continued that tribes have
long been forced to fight congressional battles in a system that has
ignored Native communities. “That is,” Lizer said, “until President Trump
took office.” |
