#SCOTUS hears oral argument today in Brackeen, a constitutional challenge to the Indian Child Welfare Act; the Court could use #Brackeen to undermine the foundations of Indian law. Plaintiffs argue that ICWA is unconst'l race discrimination and that it violates states' rights. /1

Had the opportunity to work in support of LDF, LCO, and other Wisconsin bands in this case. Very happy to see this victory in the 7th Circuit Court regarding taxation and alienable lands of tribal members. turtletalk.blog/2022/08/16/sev…

So it looks like the Indiana Magazine of History will be publishing my 46-page article effective March or June of next year, depending on where they have space for it. Thanks to @profbowes, Ted Karamanski, and the editorial staff of @imaghist for all their insightful feedback!

A thread worth reading for a brief summation of SCOTUS decisions from the past several weeks. Perhaps wait to read until you are at an appropriate time of day for a stiff drink. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Today marks the end of what is surely one of the worst terms in #SCOTUS history. Guns and prayer and abortion got most of the attention. But that's not all the Court did. Here are just some of the Court's bad decisions: 1/25

This #SCOTUS opinion in Castro Huerta is horrifying and insulting to Indian people and tribes. I’m shaken. Every few paragraphs of the majority opinion has another line that dismissively and casually cuts apart tribal independence that Native ancestors gave their lives for.

Against hundreds of years of congressional action, against solid #SCOTUS precedent, and hundreds of years of history, the Supreme Court held today that states have jurisdiction over certain crimes in Indian Country by judicial fiat. A devastating result for our democracy.

a chilling line from the joint dissent -- Kagan, Breyer, & Sotomayor do not believe this Court will stop with Roe.

As in Indian law, national power over foreign affairs/national security is “plenary”—that is, constitutional rights and judicial review give way to unbridled executive power. As I’ve written, this doctrine has roots in American colonialism and the dispossession of Natives. /1

In a 6-to-3 vote, the Supreme Court ruled that border agents may unconstitutionally enter a person's home without a warrant and assault him and ... federal courts are powerless to do anything about it. The border, once again, is a Constitution-free zone. supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf…

Follow the thread below for key insights into today's oral arguments in SCOTUS, aka Oklahoma's ongoing efforts to thwart McGirt decision.
Maggie Blackhawk@MaggieBlackhawk

#SCOTUS hears oral argument today in a case that attempts an end run around the Court's 2020 McGirt decision. Even more that a direct challenge, this case risks the legitimacy of the Court and our separation of powers--once again asking SCOTUS to operate as a super legislature.
