#ICWA STANDS!!

[Rebecca Nagle @rebeccanagle]

“But the bottom line is that we reject all of petitioners’ challenges to the statute, some on the merits and others for lack of standing.”

#ICWA stands.

#SCOTUS has released its opinion in #Brackeen. A case that challenged a 40-yr-old law to prevent family separation in Native communities & threatened tribal sovereignty. In a victory for tribes, the Court upheld #ICWA.

My toxic trait? Telling my kids what to remember if/when I die. They're both under 10 y.o.

Bro if it wasn’t for colonization I’d be living with all my siblings and cousins just raising our kids, eating nutritious foods, and living good lives. But no we have to work, dismantle racist systemic structures, and go to the gym

Ooh life update. I passed the defense aka dissertation celebration on May 6! It was a beautiful day, so many good words from family. And now I'm looking forward to graduating on Saturday! #indigenousscholar

[Crystal Lepscier, Ed.D. @C_Lepscier]

So yesterday was a great day because my dissertation committee told me that I can defend May 6. They shared meaningful words and some edits to complete. But this all means... your gal is almost done!
