Today we will look at the US Supreme Court and its ruling last week that States can enter Native American reservations with impunity, an unprecedented ruling similar to the Court’s overruling of Roe v Wade.
Last week, the US Supreme Court ruled 5-4 that States have the right to go into Native American reservations with impunity and force them to conform to state laws, including taking Native American children for adoption. To understand this more deeply, we will dialogue with Daniel P. Sheehan, a Harvard College, Harvard Law School and Harvard Divinity School–trained Constitutional Litigation and Appellate Attorney. For close to five decades, Dan’s work as an Federal Civil Rights Attorney, Author, Public Speaker and College and Law School Educator has helped expose the structural sources of injustice in our country and around the world. He has protected the fundamental and inalienable rights of our world’s citizens and has elucidated a compelling and inspiring vision for the future direction of our human family. Dan’s dedication to this vision and his work have placed him at the center of many of the most important legal cases and social movements of our generation. Cases in which he has been involved include the Pentagon Papers, Watergate, Iran Contra, Wounded Knee, Karen Silkwood, Three Mile Island.
