I guess the fact checkers were on vacation.
ICWA has been challenged on these ground hundreds of times. And each time it’s been thrown out bc the law and precedent are clear. This isn’t uncharted legal territory.pic.twitter.com/CLmJQKlsJw

When the law was passed in 1978 1/3 of all Native children had been adopted out of their tribes. The law wasn’t in response to ”200 yrs of history”, it was in response to a very real, present and harmful crisis.pic.twitter.com/4NDPYEKLy7

We know that if ICWA is overturned, we will return to these devastating statistics. With ICWA in place, Natives Americans are only 1.4 percent of the population in Minnesota, but Native kids represent 23.9 percent of the kids in the state foster care system.

Totally agree with you. This whole case stinks. Did they do what was best for child???

The assumption is that being place with a white family is best for the child by default, so, in their way of thinking, they did do what is best for the child.

Don’t get me started on how I feel about the arrogance in white Christianity. Poor things, white Christians feel “discriminated” against. “But we are Christian and white, so isn’t it obvious WE are superior to Native American families?”
