Correct, the keyword is respect. Apache is a modern label to describe various groups of Native Americans, who were on the verge of being conquered and colonized by an expanding empire. Like your quote says, Apache shares a similar, albeit less existential, plight and mission in software.

As a not-white person, the disrespect being discussed here seems imaginary. I wonder if the disrespect others see is because of a belief in a hierarchy of victimhood. The kind that grants authority to members whose ancestors who were once oppressed. Authority that justifies private ownership, authority that cannot be questioned, authority that demands greater and greater respect, if not obedience.
