A quick Google search will take you to lists of Native American protests. Many are with regard to attempts to uphold treaties and to protect Tribal Land. Those events don't take place so much in downtown areas where there are stores and business to loot and pillage.
The Native Americans are usually concerned with protecting the land, for instance where pipelines are to be laid that will disrupt the natural environment. These Native Americans are often pushed back with brutal measures. There are too few to gather up thousands of people in multiple areas as is happening right now across the country following the murder of Mr. Floyd.
I think there is still a lot of confusion on the part of some as to the difference between a protest and a riot. They are not the same though a protest can definitely devolve into a riot.
If you want to see some disparity in how things are between the Native Americans and the rest of the local population all you have to do is take a drive up into Oklahoma. Unless you are at one of the casinos you will see abject poverty all around with all the ills that come with it.
The Native Americans have been, and still are, treated horribly as a rule in America. What voices they have remain mostly unheard. You aren't going to see Oprah doing a bunch of interviews on multiple TV channels as was on last night. The Native Americans don't have someone with that sort of bully pulpit.
