"THE LOST CHILDREN" SERIES, PART 3 🔍: Follow along as we take a closer look at how we can support and protect Native kids and families. The research and findings cited in this post has been conducted by @argusleader and South Dakota Searchlight. WHAT TO EXPECT 🗣 Hear from experts—ranging from the director of the Tribal Judicial Institute at the @uofnorthdakota to the director of government affairs and advocacy for @nicwa1983—on how we can support the best practices for Native kinship and relative care placements and how we can improve upon the government support systems that are currently in place. STAY TUNED for more info on how we can play an active part in supporting the policies and practices that keep Native kids connected to their family, help develop a deeper sense of belonging, and honor their heritage and identity by following along as we unpack the series. #StopStealingNativeKids #ProtectICWA

@potus SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER TO USHER IN THE NEXT ERA OF TRIBAL SELF-DETERMINATION. Wondering how? 🪶 According to the recently published @whitehouse fact sheet, "By ensuring that Tribal Nations have greater autonomy over how they invest federal funding . . . No longer will Tribes be faced with seemingly unnecessary and arbitrary limitations when they are accessing critical funding for public safety, infrastructure, education, energy, and much more." 🪶 What else is being done? "The Executive Order is the third Order President Biden has signed to strengthen our nation-to-nation relationship, strengthen Tribal consultation, and deepen the federal government’s respect for Tribal sovereignty." 🤝 Thank you to the Tribal leaders who convened and made this significant milestone possible and for all those who participated in this year's White House Tribal Nations Summit. Let's keep the reparations coming. #StopStealingNativeKids #ProtectICWA

Repost from @brownissues • At least 16 states have taken an important step to strengthen the protections for Native children and families in addition to the federal Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). In June, the Supreme Court reaffirmed Tribes’ inherent rights as sovereign nations to determine the placement of their citizens in child welfare cases. However, LESS THAN HALF of Native Peoples live in a state where a state-level ICWA law is on the books. Here’s why states must codify their own ICWA laws to improve the protection of Native children: The federal ICWA serves as a MINIMUM standard, not the maximum protection. State-level legislation can provide additional safeguards for Native children and families that build on the federal provisions. State-specific ICWA laws can cater to unique state requirements. If ICWA is codified into every state’s laws, this can be a valuable opportunity to adapt the broad federal protections to the particular circumstances of your state and offer more guidance on its application. State child welfare agencies and courts are most familiar with state child welfare laws. Incorporating ICWA into state laws enhances awareness of its protective measures among professionals in the legal and child welfare systems, including judges, lawyers, and child welfare professionals. Are there any state-level ICWA protections in your state?

Thank you #ProtectICWA supporters for protecting Native kids and families! Swipe to hear from a round-up of bipartisan leaders regarding their decision to support ICWA in the Haaland v. Brackeen Supreme Court case. Our work is not done yet! Stay tuned for future opportunities to continue protecting and strengthening ICWA in your community. #StopStealingNativeKids
When ICWA guidelines are followed by state legal systems and the corresponding case workers, Native kids and families are able to receive the necessary and legally granted protections that are deserved in child custody cases. When ICWA guidelines are ignored, harmful and unlawful separation can occur. To learn more about the impact of ICWA, hear from Cheyenne Hinojosa and her battle to keep custody of her children in the @propublica article at the #LinkInBio. #StopStealingNativeKids #ProtectICWA
For many members of various Indigenous nations, the preservation of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) is simply not enough. As sovereign peoples, we simply cannot abide being told by anyone, let alone an occupying government that we’re now legally allowed to raise our children on our own lands. This is our right. From our perspective, SCOTUS is doing the absolute bare minimum for Indian Country given its power and influence, but the organizers give tirelessly to the movements for liberation. It’s to those behind the scenes doing the work that goes the most unseen that we celebrate, and the children who will now remain where they’ve always belonged.

We’re almost to 50,000 signatures this morning! It’s amazing how much support this case has gotten recently. This is so much bigger than just Alaska now and my only hope is that the pain they have gone through will not be for nothing. It’s obvious things need to change and I hope the support we’ve gotten will continue until it does. Everyone responsible for the heartache needs to be held accountable. Taikuulapiaq! 💕 (Thank you very much) The U.S. #supremecourt voted to protect the #indianchildwelfareact ( #icwa ), a 1978 law that protects the tribal identities of #nativechildren in #fostercare A number of tribal leaders praised the court's 7-2 ruling after it was announced, calling it a “major victory for #nativetribes , children, and the future of our culture and heritage”. This decision reaffirms the inherent rights of #tribalnations to be involved in the child welfare matters of their citizens. We celebrate this monumental victory for Indian Country and the safety and well-being of Native children and families The future is #indigenous ! ✊🏾 Celebrate with Indian Country what we have always known - our Tribal Nations preceded the formation of this country and will continue to endure as independent, sovereign Nations within the structures of American democracy.

We’re almost to 50,000 signatures this morning! It’s amazing how much support this case has gotten recently. This is so much bigger than just Alaska now and my only hope is that the pain they have gone through will not be for nothing. It’s obvious things need to change and I hope the support we’ve gotten will continue until it does. Everyone responsible for the heartache needs to be held accountable. Taikuulapiaq! 💕 (Thank you very much) The U.S. #supremecourt voted to protect the #indianchildwelfareact ( #icwa ), a 1978 law that protects the tribal identities of #nativechildren in #fostercare A number of tribal leaders praised the court's 7-2 ruling after it was announced, calling it a “major victory for #nativetribes , children, and the future of our culture and heritage”. This decision reaffirms the inherent rights of #tribalnations to be involved in the child welfare matters of their citizens. We celebrate this monumental victory for Indian Country and the safety and well-being of Native children and families The future is #indigenous ! ✊🏾 Celebrate with Indian Country what we have always known - our Tribal Nations preceded the formation of this country and will continue to endure as independent, sovereign Nations within the structures of American democracy.

We urgently and emphatically request immediate action to reunite #chanel with her loving grandmother, Aana Arlene, in Selawik. Chanel's biological mother, Kristen Ballot-Huntington, was murdered by her partner, Eric Rustad, and Chanel is currently under the care of racist, white foster parents due to her paternal grandparents regrettably declining the responsibility of caring for her. Chanel’s foster parents have proven themselves to be unfit to care for Chanel as a Native child, subjected her to derogatory terms such as "native baby" and "Mowgli," along with comments suggesting exploitation for labor and even remunerating her in muktuk when she was only 9 months old. While residing in Virginia, Jurco was charged with possessing cocaine. He was additionally charged with carrying a concealed weapon that very same day. When taken in tandem with multiple charges for reckless driving, it becomes abundantly clear that Joseph Jurco is a man with an extensive criminal record. The point here is not to shame Jurco, or anyone, for having a history with the law. Rather, it's meant to put his bigotry on full display. In addition to perpetuating harmful stereotypes, he has been guilty of the very behaviors which he accuses Indigenous people of. In trying to discredit them, he only reveals the depth of his hypocrisy and prejudice. CHANEL BELONGS WITH HER FAMILY. Go to bringchanelhome.com to sign the petition. Chanel belongs with her family. Period. #bringchanelhome #icwa #indianchildwelfareact #keepfamiliestogether #stopseparatingfamilies #everychildmatters #protecticwa #stopstealingnativekids #gibsondunn #indigenouschildrenmatter #nativechildrenmatter @chloecheyennee The Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 is a federal law that was enacted to ensure that every effort be made to keep Native children within their communities. We must raise awareness around this critical piece of legislation. Experts ranging from child welfare service providers to legal teams agree, ICWA was put in place to serve the best interests of Native kids and ensures a sense of belonging and connection to their culture. The Indian Child Welfare Act is the “gold standard” of child welfare policy.

Help us Bring #chanel Home! Sign our petition at www.BringChanelHome.com Chanel's mother was murdered by her father. She is currently with a family in Fairbanks who is refusing to obey a tribal court order to return Chanel to her maternal grandmother. They have made racist and deragatory comments about her and her culture. Referring to her as the "little Native baby" and "Mowgli". Please sign our petition to pressure them to do the right thing so she can be with her real family who will honor and respect her culture and heritage. The #indianchildwelfareact (ICWA) is undeniably critical legislation that protects current and future generations of Native kids and families. In the ongoing Haaland v. Brackeen Supreme court case, ICWA's opponents are attacking the law in order to separate #nativefamilies and build a larger case against #tribalsovereignty . We must work together to keep the protections and rights Native children deserve in place. The Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) has been able to keep #nativechildren with their families, communities, and cultures since 1978. Now a small group of opponents is trying to strike down the law in the Haaland v. Brackeen Supreme Court case. We listen to those who have personal experiences with ICWA to remember why we keep fighting to Protect ICWA. ICWA must remain intact to continue to protect future generations of Native children and uphold tribal sovereignty as we know it.

#illegal #birthalerts ARE STILL BEING USED IN SO-CALLED CANADA!!! Our hearts go out to this family and we hope to see the baby returned to the mother. This is absolutely horrrible. No mother should go through this @last.real.indians @isha_mayuk An #indigenous #newborn apprehended by #childwelfare authorities at a Winnipeg hospital has been reunited with her young parents following social-media outcry and an appeal for intervention at the Manitoba legislature. The baby girl was taken into the custody of child and family services on April 17, three days after her birth, according to the family Video of the incident posted by the baby's aunt, Gina Sanderson, the same day circulated widely on social media and amassed thousands of views across various platforms as the family advocated for the child's return. AND As a new father, Tyler Diaz-Lopez, 18, said the apprehension of his daughter was devastating A case worker arrived to take the child as they were being discharged from hospital and refused to elaborate on reasons for the apprehension, claimed the member of Wabaseemoong Independent Nations in Ontario The baby's 17-year-old mother is in the Manitoba #childwelfaresystem and in the care of her adult sister. Family members said they had developed a kinship plan with CFS and were prepared to take the baby home What does #reconciliation mean to you? In an op-ed published by @shastascout, Fawn Robinson, a member of the Susanville Indian Rancheria, writes about how #icwa has positively affirmed her sense of self and connection to her culture As put by Fawn, "Our children are the future.

Denne dokumentarfilm om anbringelser i USA er et spejlbillede af dansk retspraksis i grønlandske anbringelsessager i Danmark. Dokumentarfilmen pin pointer alt vi har sagt fra start om hvad der er galt i dansk anbringelsespraksis i Danmark, bare uden det ekstra diskriminationselement, racialisering, stereotyper, fordomme baseret på etnicitet. Forældre bliver gjort skyldige indtil det modsatte er bevist. Deres historie ender nogenlunde "godt" da maya kommer hjem at bo igen, men det har sin pris (vi vil ikke afsløre for meget). I dokumentaren ser man hvor meget sagsbehandleres ord, fortolkninger, meninger og udokumenterede påstande bliver grundlag for anbringelse, og fastholdelse af anbringelse. Man ser hvordan hverken forældre eller børn høres i sagen. Intet de siger har vægt i socialsystemet, deres ord, deres version af historien anerkendes ikke, der ønsker anerkendes ikke. Man ser i dokumentaren hvordan det splitter velfungerende, ressourcestærke familier, hvordan børn og forældre traumatiseres for resten af deres liv, og hvordan retssystemet og socialsystemet absolut aldrig erkender deres fejl.

Sharing from our friends at• @nativegiving 🚨 URGENT UPDATE: The Supreme Court voted to uphold the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA)! This is a major victory for Native children, Native families, and the future of Native peoples. ICWA recognizes Tribal Nations’ inherent powers of self-government, which include the right to provide for the social, economic, safety, and cultural needs of their citizens. Similar to states or foreign countries, Tribal Nations are sovereigns and should be involved in cases that involve their citizen children. With this ruling, the Justices have sent a clear message that these bogus attacks against Tribal sovereignty will not be tolerated. We hope that this decision will lay to rest the political attacks, but let this case show that Indian Country is united in defense of our sovereignty. THANK YOU to everyone who showed up to support and #ProtectICWA! Share the exciting news with your community to celebrate this huge success 🎉 #StopStealingNativeKids #StopColonizers #SCOTUS #SupremeCourt #ICWA #IndianChildWelfareAct #Indigenous #native

YES!! ICWA STANDS!! #icwa #IndianChildWelfareAct #protectICWA #ProtectNativeChildren #StopStealingNativeKids #SCOTUS #SupremeCourtHearing #SupremeCourt
By the end of June, the United States Supreme Court is set to make a decision on the constitutionality of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). Protecting Native children is critical for ensuring our rights, tribal sovereignty, and futures. . . . Repost from @ProtectICWA . The attack on the Indian Child Welfare Act is part of a larger formula for colonizing Native peoples — the last stage being taking Native children. By stealing Native children, they lose ties to their family, community, and culture and their sense of belonging. ICWA was put in place to end harmful policies and practices that separated Native kids from their communities. But colonization is still happening today as ICWA is challenged in the Supreme Court. We need to #ProtectICWA so we can stop colonizers from stealing Native children. Tag someone below to learn about the recipe for colonization. #StopStealingNativeKids

June is the official last month for SCOTUS to announce their decision for the future of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). Despite the Haaland v. Brackeen lawsuit being filed in Texas, this motion does not speak for the majority. Residents throughout the state are speaking up about why we must protect #ICWA. ICYMI, ICWA's opponents are ➡️ Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton The Goldwater Institute, and private interests. Each are profit-oriented and unafraid to enforce family separation in order to accomplish their goals. If they succeed in decimating ICWA, they will have cleared the way for the destruction of Native families, Native land, and tribal sovereignty. THIS IS OF MAJOR CONCERN AND WE NEED ALL COMMUNITIES TO STEP IN! Sign the #ProtectICWA petition at the #LinkInBio to show you stand in solidarity with Native kids and families.

By the end of June, we will know the Supreme Court's decision regarding the future of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). Upholding #ICWA is essential to the well-being of current and future generations of Native children, families, and communities. Why is ICWA a necessary law? ➡️ ICWA has acted as a much-needed reform on the practices that have separated Native children from their families for centuries. Specifically, ICWA addresses the family separation crisis which compounded 200+ years of active cultural genocide in the boarding school system, starting in the early 1800s, and continuing to impact Native families to this day.
