Honestly that depends on who you define as "we" and what tribal peoples you're referencing. Depending on tribe some want all the help they can get preserving cultural history, some want help in the form of funding or access to do it themselves (because some tribes don't have access to their own ancestral lands ffs), some would prefer no outside interference, and finally, a small number of tribes have actually expressed the preference for their history to fade with time. Respecting Indigenous sovereignty, while acknowledging the diversity of viewpoints is key.

Reply to comment by growsomegarlic in How did Native American tribes indigenous to Yellowstone National Park (e.g., Shoshone, Blackfeet, Crow, etc.) perceive the land (e.g., thoughts on geothermal activity) and what was their relationship like with white/European trappers and explorers entering the region in the early 1800s? by electricdresses
