Feature Indigenous Streamers
November is Native American/Alaska Native Heritage month do you have any plans to highlight this or feature Native Streamers?

The thought we need to "vote" on whether or not indigenous streamers deserve a feature feels like a joke but I'm here to do my part.

The fact this even needs votes is beyond degrading... Do better Twitch.

Native Streamers deserve a spotlight on Twitch! Inclusivity is so important to making Twitch the best platform it can be.

it's frustrating that this is something that people even need to vote on, if Twitch considers itself to be such an inclusive platform then they should have agreed to do have November as a month to uplift Indigenous creators as soon as they were asked to. Disappointing, Twitch.

Twitch always brags about how inclusive it is with the various support events for many cultures or for pride month but then does this?

Twitch headquarters are situated on stolen Indigenous land, why do we - bak'wam and allies - need to vote to have our relations represented on this platform? It's outrageous.

The fact this needs a vote rather than Twitch recognizing the importance themselves is.... Yeah

The other cultures months have been added. Why can't Native Heritage November month be on there as well? This shouldn't even be voted on.

There really shouldn't be a need to vote. This should already be on twitch. The fact it isnt shows how bad twitch can be sometimes.

Honestly disappointed that this needed to be voted on, Twitch can do so much better! Representation is not something anyone should need to vote on, it is a right we all deserve <3

This vote system should be for things like “let’s add an option to like a stream”, not to make Indigenous streamers jump through hoops to get recognition

Like many people said here this shouldn't need a vote. As a poc. Who's Blackfoot, Cherokee, and black. I spent so many years never seeing my people represented. There shouldn't be a vote. This should have always been supported by twitch. Watch them only try to feature Natives during the month too. Then back to almost never being seen on the homepage.

The fact that something like this has to be voted on and willed into existence is terrible. This should've been a "well duh" moment when every other heritage month was being added.

I am furious that votes are required to make Native Heritage Month a thing onTwitch. So much for your work on Diversity, Inclusion, Equality and Equity.
