Episode description

The Indian Child Welfare Act is touted as having ended Residential Schools and stemming the flow of Native children to white families through foster care and adoption. Well... That's not entirely true. And any claim that ICWA recognized our sovereignty? THAT is completely untrue. If it were true, the law would have told states that WE are the only ones authorized to remove Native children from their homes and parents and that our Nations would be responsible for placement of these children.

It doesn't and we aren't!

But far worse than the law was the challenge before the Supreme Court.
