The Supreme Court released its opinion in Haaland vs. Brackeen, a case that challenged the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act. In a surprising 7-2 vote, the Court upheld ICWA. Rebecca Nagle, host of This Land, joins Leah, Kate, and Melissa to unpack the opinion and what it means for indigenous families.
- Listen to two previous episodes with Rebecca Nagle: "Go Down Clutching the Constitution" from March 2022 when the case was granted, and "The Uncertain Future of the Indian Child Welfare Act" from November 2022, right after oral arguments.
- Listen to season two of This Land, which tells the backstory of Haaland vs. Brackeen
- Donate to Barry Jones' release fund and listen to the episode we did with Liliana Seguara on his case: "Innocence Isn't Enough"
