      I’ve been listening to a book called The Way We Never Were, which dismantles beliefs like that and exposes the terrible things we don’t have to put up with anymore. You’d think it’s a very modern book, but it was written in 1992

    And now, there is federal law that children services must talk with families about whether or not they are part of a Tribe or Nation, and then, if the answer is yes, they must contact the tribe and let them decide how they want to handle the issues with their tribe members and their children. It's called ICWA (Indian Child Welfair Act) en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Child_Welfare_Act
    Because of this disgusting practice, along with older things like the boarding schools.

      I worked with these cases for six years. The unfortunate part is that states can get away with applying the law in the way the state wants. When I worked in Iowa, they were dedicated to following the law as written, and I was part of that. Once I moved to Oregon, and there are lots of tribes here, they kind of don't bother a whole lot with ICWA from what I can see. I know that a few years ago (under the former administration) there were lawsuits to dismantle ICWA from even existing.

What I haven't heard mentioned in public yet, or "exposed," if you will, is what's been going on for decades at Boys Town in Omaha, along the same lines as the Matt Gaetz story -- only way worse.

    First saw him in Spawn. Terrible movie, great IP, EPIC soundtrack, and John was kick-ass. I support everything he's doing.

      Steven was having him repeat a lot...like maybe he wasn't listening

      Was it me or did Stephen seem uncomfortable in this interview?

    John! Come to Phoenix, Arizona! The Latinos are a big reason why we turned the state light blue. We have beautiful Latinx art, culture, activism...you name it. Perfect for John Leguizamo Does America! (We love the show keep up the great work, John).

    Wow, that's crazy ! This government has done some serious harm to the indigenous population. It's amazing to hear this was going on as recent as the 1980's.

    If you are; I suggest you give Ted Cruz a pass.

    This Oglala Lakota Oyate member just made an account. I loved John Leguizamo in every role he played, especially in Spawn, but, if this is a somewhat accurate portrayal of what we went through and are still going through, I will have to buy or make something for this guy in appreciation. If there is too much fiction or dramatization, I'm still going to keep him up there. We smell bullshit with our eyes and taste fake noises in our fingers. I'll enter optimistically, but Iktomi holds only hands with Coyote and finds trouble so we'll see.
