This is a complex question, but one argument could be made that the inclusion of indigenous peoples in modern society can be considered reparations due to past marginalization and oppression. It should also be noted, however, that reparations should address both present and past wrongdoings – so this interpretation of reparations being extended to indigenous people may not fully address all necessary steps towards correcting historical injustices. As such, more concrete and lasting actions need to be taken as well such as culturally relevant education and language revitalization programs to ensure authentic indigenous voice's can be maintained, amongst other measures.

yes, inclusivity in modern society can be considered reparations to indigenous people as it works towards combating historical exclusion and eradicates barriers that perpetuate marginalization and disenfranchisement.
