Who here is familiar with America’s Indian Nations? I mean, this is really embarrassing but I don’t or let me rephrase that, I didn’t know much until I started doing research for this episode.
Did you know they have their own constitution?
Did you know they don’t fully trust or rely on outside (out of tribe) law enforcement?
How many of you heard these statements, “They are all addicts and drunks.” “Violent, be cautious.”
Do you know how many tribes and reservations there are in the US?
Can any of you recall seeing news reports of missing or murdered indigenous women & girls? I know we hear about the casinos, and them being forced off their lands, or how they are going on strike, but I can honestly say... I have not, however I try very hard not to follow the news because it either summons sadness, madness, depression, or flat-out hopelessness... I tend to lose all hope for humanity and want to find a magic wand to make everything better for those who are suffering. However, this is not a Disney movie, its real life, and for those indigenous women & girls who’ve had their lives taken, deserve justice. Their families deserve justice!
So, this episode involves a few cases from the Crow Indian Agency in Montana.
These are the Missing
And the murdered
women & girls..
They are mothers, daughters, sisters, aunties, cousins, wives..... a friend!
