Astroturfing is paying people to pretend to care about a certain issue or have a certain opinion on a product or things like that, so it gives the impression that it is popular. Like when a politician pays people to come to their rallies, or pays fake protestors to show up where their rivals are, or pays people to tweet or leave reddit comments or make Facebook posts promoting something.

Ballots are required by the VRA to be printed in Aleut, Apache, Choctaw, Coushatta, Ho-Chunk, Hopi, Inupiaq, Kickapoo, Navajo, Nez Perce, Paiute, Pueblo (unclear which?), Seminole, Shoshone, Ute, and Yup'ik in certain counties/boroughs, according to this report (page 35)

Usually human remains returned to tribes get reburied, with other artifacts it depends, but regardless they don't rightfully belong to the anthropologists or archeologists who took them or dug them up or the university that's been holding on to them, it should not be up to them what happens to the items, it should be the decision of the descendants of the people whose bodies we're talking about or who made the items. Whether they have their own museum or loan them to a museum or bury them or whatever.

The Wiyot tribe this article discusses does have a Historic Preservarion Office and a cultural center.
