A meeting or council of Native American people, held to talk over and decide things that matter to the group.
北美原住民的集會、議事會
Picture people sitting down together to talk something out until it is settled. That is the whole word: a gathering whose purpose is the talking. The first sense names a real council of Native American communities, where what is decided matters. English then points the same word at four colleagues by a desk, and the gap between those two pictures is exactly where the joke lives — and also why the joking use is worth handling with care.
