Do what? The source you linked stated it was about a white (U.S.) southerner and a black child. What “indigenous” person do you think is depicted here…?
Edit: original comment said this was about a “colonist” and an “indigenous person”.
I’m being a little technical, but I think it’s important. He/she would have been either an ex-slave, or a child of slaves, or just in general an African most likely. But definitely not “a slave”.
It depicts a oppressors killing others using self defense as an excuse.
Bullies victimizing themselves is a tale as old as time, as comic this was released in 1876. And very relevant today.

Oops you’re right this isn’t a native but a slave I’ll correct my comment.
Not a slave either.
This was around 10 years after the abolishment of slavery in the south, was it not referencing that?
If not what is the actual context?

Depends… I bet in the head of Mr. Chiv there, it’s still a slave.
