Reclaiming Our Children: a story of the Indian Child Welfare Act

Reclaiming Our Children: a story of the Indian Child Welfare Act (2007, 28:00) by Marcella Ernest (Bad River Ojibwe)

The wholesale separation of Indian children from their families is the most destructive and tragic aspect of American Indian life today. Prior to 1978, Native children were placed in foster care at a rate of 10 to 20 times higher than any other group in the U.S. This documentary examines the impact of the Indian Child Welfare Act, the child welfare system, and the laws, policies, and attitudes that work against Native families.
