"1/64th Choctaw"? Disgusting. As I've written so many times, whites' obsession with blood quantum is dangerous.https://twitter.com/NBCNews/status/712104609452572672 …

ICWA is in place because native nations (they're nations, ok?!) have the right to determine their future — including keeping their babies.

Imagine someone from Italy said, "I'm gonna take this U.S. baby." Then imagine they did it for 500 years. The U.S. would be right to say no.

This is what the Choctaw Nation is saying: No. No, white people can't just take Choctaw babies because they feel like it.

Lexi isn't a *part* Choctaw. She *is* Choctaw. That's how it works — the nation determines who its citizens are. Because tribal sovereignty.

@aurabogado Children are not property of any tribal/other group. Children are people. ICWA is like Nazi "racial" laws. Defy it; repeal it. -
@senkwrites@aurabogado Children are people with families. Children are citizens of nations. Children have a right to their culture.
