I have been following the case that brought the Indian Child Welfare Act to
the Supreme Court with great interest ever since listening to Rebecca
Nagle’s podcast *This Land*. In it she elucidates how custody battles over
Native children are a thinly veiled attempt to threaten tribal sovereignty
and civil rights. She and many others were holding their breath to see if
Native communities would be denied their rights yet again, as the U.S. has
done with such cruel consistency over the past 500 years. But, as Chase
Iron Eyes describes so eloquently in the opening line of his story
<https://yesmagazine.cmail20.com/t/d-l-vvuho-ykdiuikyn-j/>, when the ruling
was announced, it was like “an enormous, collective sigh of relief from
Native America.” The lawyer with the Lakota People’s Law Project wrote one
of the many amicus briefs for the case. In his exclusive column for YES!,
Iron Eyes explains the takeaways of the ruling and reminds readers that
this breath of fresh air needs to restore and ready activists for the
continued fight to uphold Native sovereignty.
