The Indian Child Welfare Act was put in place to end this harmful separation and forced assimilation in 1978. ICWA requires courts to prioritize keeping Native families together and keeping Native children in connection with their tribes, communities, and culture. — PolitiTweet.org

While the boarding schools were largely shuttered in the mid-1900s, coercive adoptive programs took their place. Public and private child welfare agencies were removing 25 to 35 percent of Native children from their homes, placing most of them in non-Native households. — PolitiTweet.org

Now, ICWA is being reviewed by the Supreme Court, who could overturn it this fall. We’re urging the Supreme Court to uphold the constitutionality of ICWA, protect tribal sovereignty, and ensure Native families have a right to stay together. https://t.co/dplXyGewsM — PolitiTweet.org
