Indian Child Welfare Act at the Supreme Court [View all]

https://boingboing.net/2022/11/14/indian-child-welfare-act-before-the-supreme-court.html

The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments about the Indian Child Welfare Act last week. Though the surface issue is adoption, this case concerns indigenous ways of knowing and living, i.e., sovereignty and self-determination, identity, and the relationship between Indigenous Nations and the United States. The podcast This Land, Season 2, digs deep into the larger historical and political contexts of the issues about ICWA.
