This quote appears to be from Lame Deer, Seeker of Visions about John Lame Deer’s tribe, the Lakota people, and his experiences.

I didn’t read the book I just wanted to find out where the quote was from. It is from one man’s lived experiences in his tribe.

Communities with less took care of those who were the worst off, why can’t we?

We can. We choose not to. There's a difference.

Take that as an indication of everyone you interact with during your day on where their priorities lie.

Yeah, attribution for quotes is kinda important - especially when there's so many people faking native American quotes out there. Any time you see something about "native wisdom" or a a quote, you should immediately look for attribution. At the very least, you should get the nation/tribe and time period of the quote. Otherwise, it's pablum
