The Supreme Court has upheld
#ICWA, or the Indian Child Welfare Act, giving preference to the foster care and adoption of Native American children by their own relatives and Tribe! 👏👏
According to Nick Tilson of ndncollective, “ICWA is one tool to prevent the continued cultural genocide of Indigenous people in the so-called United States, and is critical to the wellbeing of our youth and people as a whole."
This is a huge win for Native families, Tribes, and Tribal Sovereignty AND it's a huge win for
#ClimateJustice. Indigenous Communities have long led the protection of our planet's biodiversity, forests, waters, and more.
