Being indigenous does not mean you are qualified for a job, unless that job is being indigenous. Side-by-side with another non-indigenous person if they were both equally qualified, that would certainly be the tie breaker, but that too often we continue to see this occurring. Hell, that's one of the reasons trump became president, people looked at other none important attributes he had before they looked if he was qualified. Spoiler alert, he wasn't.

Unless her primary defining attribute is she is indigenous, you are doing her, and everyone else a disservice by only carrying about that. It's not gay Frank, it's Frank who is also gay.

So again, if she is the most qualified person for the job, hire her, but if you are just hiring her because she indigenous, well that's a pretty poor thing to do for everyone.
