In this episode, Neoshia Roemer, Associate Professor of Law at Seton Hall University School of Law, discusses her article "Equity for American Indian Families," which will be published in the Minnesota Law Review. Roemer explains what the Indian Child Welfare Act does, why it was created, and how some people are using equal protection arguments in order to challenge its constitutionality. She explains why ICWA is so important for both children and tribes, and why the criticisms of it are so misguided. Roemer is on Twitter at @ProfNRoemer.
