Hey True Advocates. It's me, Eric Carter Landin, and before we get into the episode, I wanted to give you some context into why we decided to cover this. A lot of people were talking about the June 15th, 2023 Supreme Court decision on Haaland vs Brackeen case which upheld the Indian Child Welfare Act. ICWA is a very important legislation that is related to the sovereignty of the First -Nations

Jackie and I were talking one day and she had expressed to me that she wanted to really dive into why the Indian Child Welfare Act was so important to upholding sovereignty for native tribes, and of course, I immediately agreed. I want to thank Jackie Moranty for researching and writing this script. But I also wanted to just set the context because this episode is a little bit different from most of the episodes that we do, but it is advocacy related and it does affect New Mexico.

I'm happy that ICWA was upheld by the Supreme Court. It was the right decision.
