[9] Keeler co-founded Eradicating Offensive Native Mascotry, which launched and trended the hashtag #NotYourMascot during the 2014 Super Bowl.[17] This research resulted in the Alleged Pretendians List,[18] of about 200 public figures in academia and entertainment, which Keeler self-published as a Google spreadsheet in 2021.[21] In an interview with APTN, Keeler said she and her team decided to compile the Alleged Pretendians list (stressing the "Alleged") to show how pervasive the problem is - that numerous non-Natives are profiting off fraud, are in positions of authority in academia, film and television and that non-Native individuals with no connections to the communities they claim are "positioning themselves as our spokespeople on National and International issues.Praised by Ojibwe author Louise Erdrich: "Rigorous analysis and personal storytelling invigorate Jacqueline Keeler's examination of Indigenous vs. colonial land tenure."[22] In 2017, she also edited Edge of Morning: Native Voices Speak for the Bears Ears featuring fifteen contributors: multi-generational writers, poets, activists, teachers, students, and public officials examining tribal efforts to protect the Bears Ears by making it a national monument.
