Stunning Outcome: ICWA STANDS (podcast)
06/19/2023
Supreme Court Stunner: The Indian Child Welfare Act Stands
Last week, in a surprising 7-2 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court fully
upheld the Indian Child Welfare Act in Brackeen v. Haaland. We break
down the full opinion of the court and their various reasons for siding
in support of the 1978 law that was passed at a time when nearly a third
of indigenous children were separated from their family.
We are joined for reaction to the Brackeen ruling by three women close to the case:
-Kate Fort of Michigan State University, one of the foremost
experts on ICWA in this country, who assisted with the tribes’
preparation for the Supreme Court oral arguments
-Chrissi Ross Nimmo, deputy attorney general for Cherokee Nation, one of the the tribes that officially was party to the case
-Rebecca Nagle, journalist and architect of the podcast This Land, whose second season focused on the Brackeen case.
Guest Interview
Kate Fort is director of clinics at Michigan State University College of Law, including the Indian Law Clinic
Chrissi Ross Nimmo is the deputy attorney general for Cherokee Nation.
Rebecca Nagle is an award-winning journalist and host of the podcast This Land.

ADOPTION TRUTH
As the single largest unregulated industry in the United States, adoption is viewed as a benevolent action that results in the formation of “forever families.”
The truth is that it is a very lucrative business with a known sales pitch. With profits last estimated at over $1.44 billion dollars a year, mothers who consider adoption for their babies need to be very aware that all of this promotion clouds the facts and only though independent research can they get an accurate account of what life might be like for both them and their child after signing the adoption paperwork.
