Not saying this is the case, but I've met a lot of natives who denigrate, mock and make racially charged comments about their own people.

In a place like northern rural Alberta where prejudice against natives is very much out in the open and widespread this might be a coping mechanism for natives to try and fit into the dominant culture.

Or it could just be some kids having fun.
