Ah, reciprocity again.

“'Feeding the hand that feeds you,' June explained, is the key takeaway when considering the kinship system indigenious communities engaged in.

June then reflected that this 'reciprocity' based system contrasts the central goal of the current colonial system: 'profit maximization.'”
