It's for work, not school, which I don't go to anymore.
Yes, but it does better than 95% of the 'minority'-targeted material in comics, because it doesn't try to depict some kind of racial reverse utopia, like the super-awesome high-tech black monarchy of Black Panther nor does it deal exclusively with the relationship between the minority and the oppressor (usually, but not always, the white man).
In fact, I think what's interesting about Scalped is that outside of Nitz and his partner, there isn't much actual "brown people to white people" interaction going on, whether it's on an individual or group level.
Rather, the narrative focus is entirely on how the Oglala Lakota deal with their heritage, how the old Dog Soldiers deal with their past and history, and how the white man's impact on the local culture is felt.
So there IS a presence, but it's about the traces and marks that have been left behind by a colonial influence, rather than an individual or group.
EDIT, FOOTNOTE: However, remember that minority is relative. In the United States, yes 'Filipino' is an Asian-American minority, but where I live, we Filipinos outnumber the white man, even though their presence and influence on us is pretty significant.
