What does it mean to say that rape is not a crime of passion, but a tool of conquest? In this searing episode, Matika sits down with Chief Justice Sarah Deer—legal scholar, citizen of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation, and longtime advocate for Native women—to break down the root causes of the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and People (MMIWP) crisis. Together, they trace the systemic failures—from jurisdictional loopholes and underfunded Tribal justice systems to harmful stereotypes and state indifference—that enable violence against Native people to persist across generations.Sarah shares insights from decades of research, courtroom advocacy, and lived experience. She explains why the word “rape” still matters, how U.S. law continues to reflect colonial patriarchy, and what tribal sovereignty has to do with personal safety. With clarity and care, she connects the dots between land theft, gender-based violence, and narrative erasure—and offers a vision for Indigenous feminist legal theory that centers survivor agency and collective healing.This is a vital episode for anyone who wants to understand the roots of violence and the pathways to justice in Indian Country.Learn more about Sarah Deer's work at sarahdeer.com.Educational Reading & Reports• Sarah Deer's The Beginning and End of Rape is essential reading on how U.S. law enables violence against Native women—and how we can reclaim justice through sovereignty and Indigenous feminist legal theory.

Most Americans take their sovereignty for granted — the nation's right to make its own laws and govern its own people. The same rights we recognize in other sovereign nations, with one glaring exception — the Native nations and tribes who were here first. For Native Americans, sovereignty is not some abstract idea. It's an ongoing, daily struggle. Original Air Date: July 13, 2024Interviews In This Hour: The battle over tribal rights in Bad River — Quannah ChasingHorse's two worlds – Native activist and supermodel — Are Indian casinos the key to tribal sovereignty? — No more Native American 'trauma porn'Guests: Mary Mazzio, Quannah ChasingHorse, Steven Andrew Light, David TreuerNever want to miss an episode?

This is part two of our series on the Forest Service's major proposed changes to the Northwest Forest Plan.  As most of our listeners know, the 30 year old Northwest Forest Plan provides critical protections to over 24 million acres of public land in Oregon, Washington, and California.The Forest Service has proposed sweeping changes to the Plan through their recently released Draft Environmental Impact Statement, or DEIS, and public comment is open until March 17th. The DEIS would, among other things, give them wide latitude to drastically increase industrial scale logging, including in Mature and Old Growth forests.In part one of this series, we explored one most important, and also complex, aspects of the proposed changes - meaningful Tribal inclusion.  I highly recommend you listen to that episode if you haven't yet. You can find wherever you're listening to this episode!We are going to focus on two other key components of the plan, fire, and the fight to protect mature and old growth forests, in upcoming episodes.  And in the meantime, you can find guides on how to submit comments to the Forest Service in the links below.Today we are going to explore an often overlooked issue in the Northwest Forest Plan, and Forestry in general - Labor.  And more specifically, the exploitation of immigrant labor in our forests and timberlands.I'm joined by Manuel Machado from Oregon State University.  Manuel has done a lot of research into labor issues and exploitation of workers in the forestry sector.  Comment Writing Guides!Northwest Forest Plan DEIS Engagement toolkit: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MOAORP7b1YenBZsZj27qfBJiJU4b6oXAX6vXKtqdQ-w/edit?usp=sharingRecommendations for Tribal Sovereignty and Environmental Justice in the Northwest Forest Plan Amendment Draft Environmental Impact Statement: https://blogs.uoregon.edu/nwfpjustfutures/resource-guide-for-making-public-comment/ Support the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!

The Northwest Forest Plan is one of the primary reasons that we have any forest left in the Northwest.  Without it, and other protections that are now also at risk because of the Trump administration, our public lands would look no different than the industrial clearcuts and monocrop tree plantations that surround me in the Coast Range.In December, the Forest Service released its planned amendment to the Northwest Forest Plan in what is called a ‘Draft Environmental Impact Statement', or DEIS, and we the public have until March 17th to submit comments on their proposal.We are going to release several episodes focusing on the good, the bad, and complexities of the Forest Service's proposed changes, and we'll provide as much guidance as possible for how to submit comments and get involved in other ways.You can find guides to submit comments in the notes of the podcast version of this episode, and we will also be sharing links to comment writing guides on our website and social media very soon!For now, I'm so excited to start this mini-series off with Ryan Reed.  Ryan is from the Karuk, Hupa and Yurok tribes in Northern California, an Indigenous Fire Practitioner, wildland firefighter, co-founder of the Fire Generation Collaborative, and a member of the Northwest Forest Plan Federal Advisory Committee, among many other things!  Ryan is a thoughtful, dynamic speaker, and I've wanted to have him on Coast Range Radio for a long time.Real quick before we get started, I love to get feedback, questions, show ideas or whatever else is on your mind.  My email is michael@coastrange.org.  If you appreciate what we do, please share this show with people in your community!Show Notes:https://www.firegencollab.org/https://fusee.org/Braiding Indigenous and Western Knowledge for Climate-Adapted Forests: https://depts.washington.edu/flame/mature_forests/pdfs/BraidingSweetgrassReport.pdfComment Writing Guides!Northwest Forest Plan DEIS Engagement toolkit: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MOAORP7b1YenBZsZj27qfBJiJU4b6oXAX6vXKtqdQ-w/edit?usp=sharingRecommendations for Tribal Sovereignty and Environmental Justice in the Northwest Forest Plan Amendment Draft Environmental Impact Statement: https://blogs.uoregon.edu/nwfpjustfutures/resource-guide-for-making-public-comment/Support the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!

Historic LA wildfires are still smoldering, the Oregon legislature is back in session, a massively controversial plan to drastically amend the northwest forest plan governing management policies on over 20 million acres of our most precious forests barrels forward, and that little matter of he who shall not be named returning to power and confirming that, like most sequels, this one will be worse, and yes, we are in the darkest and dumbest timeline.With so much to cover, why am I putting out a rerun?Well, I was all set to put out a brand new episode featuring speakers from a recent University or Oregon Symposium on the hugely consequential topic of Tribal Sovereignty and tribal inclusion in the Northwest forest plan.  But we had some last minute scheduling issues and I didn't have time to arrange a backup interview.  However, the event was amazing and explored some incredibly important, thorny, and inspiring issues, and I hope to bring you a conversation with some of those Tribal voices next episode.While I work to put together a new set of interviews on the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Northwest Forest Plan draft amendment, including how you can help protect our most treasured forests, I think this is actually a great time to revisit an episode from last year on wildfire myths, facts, and misinformation.  Even if you already listened to this conversation when it came out, it is really worth a second listen.  I spend a lot of my time immersed in wildfire research, and I still got so much out of listening back to this interview.  I think you will too, so let's get to my interview from last year with Ralph Bloemers.  And I will note real quick that we discuss some proposed legislation from LAST year, which I think is still very relevant as we are dealing with all the same issues coming into the 2025 legislative session.Support the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!

A truly landmark Supreme Court decision in 2020 resulted in the largest restoration of Native American tribal land in American history. More than half of the state of Oklahoma is now declared “Indian Country” after the court decision. In her book "By the Fire We Carry" journalist Rebecca Nagel, a member of the Cherokee Nation, traces the generations-long fight for sovereignty and the brutal history of tribal land removal that underpinned the decision. We listen back to our September conversation with Nagle about her own family's complicated legacy in the struggle for justice and the implications of the Supreme Court decision.

In this episode of YourForest Podcast, host Matthew Kristoff engages with Dr. Cristina Eisenberg to explore the powerful concept of "Two-Eyed Seeing." This approach braids Indigenous knowledge with Western science to create more resilient, climate-adapted forests.Dr. Eisenberg shares her experiences and insights from the report "Braiding Indigenous and Western Knowledge for Climate Adapted Forests," which she co-authored. The discussion delves into climate change, forest stewardship, and how Indigenous ecological practices can help create the future of sustainable forest stewardship.Here are the 5 Key Recommendations of the “Braiding Sweetgrass Report”:- Adopt proactive stewardship.- Recognize and respect Tribal Sovereignty and Indigenous Knowledge.- Provide the flexibility to steward dynamic landscapes and navigate uncertainties under rapidly changing conditions.- Ground agency planning, and land and resource stewardship policies in ethics of reciprocity and responsibility to many future human generations.- Catalyze innovative approaches to forest stewardship.Dr. Cristina Eisenberg is an Associate Dean at Oregon State University, specializing in tribal initiatives and climate resilience. As a community ecologist with Māori and Western Apache heritage, she combines Indigenous and Western knowledge to address environmental challenges.Dr. Eisenberg and Matthew dive into the concept of "Two-Eyed Seeing" and how it can reshape forest stewardship. They discuss the importance of cultural burning, proactive management, and Indigenous sovereignty, all of which are central to creating climate-resilient landscapes. The episode highlights the benefits of using both Indigenous ecological practices and modern environmental strategies to steward the land for future generations. Key Takeaways:- Two-Eyed Seeing: This concept involves viewing the world through both Western science and Indigenous knowledge, leading to more holistic and effective forest management strategies.- Proactive Stewardship: Dr. Eisenberg emphasizes the need for proactive, place-based stewardship that prioritizes forest resilience, especially in the face of climate change.- Reciprocity with Nature: Indigenous ecological practices are based on reciprocity, where humans take from nature mindfully and give back to maintain balance.- Recognizing and Respecting Sovereignty: It is crucial to respect tribal sovereignty and involve Indigenous communities in decision-making processes for forest management.- Healing from Past Harms: Acknowledging historical trauma caused by colonization and implementing Indigenous-led approaches to restore ecosystems.Resources:Dr. Cristina Eisenberg's LinkedIn Profile: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eisenberg-cristina-phd-7b153b26/BraidingSweetgrassReport: https://depts.washington.edu/flame/mature_forests/pdfs/BraidingSweetgrassReport.pdfThe Wise Path Forward: https://adaptiveforeststewardship.org/who-we-are/SponsorsWest Fraser - https://www.westfraser.com/GreenLink Forestry Inc. - http://greenlinkforestry.com/Quotes:[00:19:25] Dr. Cristina Eisenberg: "Two-eyed seeing is when one eye views the world through Indigenous knowledge and the other through Western science. Together, they form binocular vision."[00:12:28] Dr. Cristina Eisenberg: "We did damage to these forests by eliminating cultural burning, not understanding the long-term impacts."[00:59:41] Dr. Cristina Eisenberg: "Reciprocity means we take what we need, but we give back more to the forest.

Tribes can enact laws and take actions that relate to tribal land. But the ability for tribes to dictate what happens in the skies over that land is less clear. The Federal Aviation Administration is the main authority controlling the use of airspace. But the growing proliferation of drones and small personal aircraft is prompting researchers and some tribes to explore how to assert jurisdiction to what happens overhead. We'll discuss some of the current limits and possibilities for exerting sovereign influence over tribal airspace.

Long before colonizers imposed their political ideologies upon Indigenous people, many tribes governed themselves by community consensus. Today, Native people who are citizens of federally recognized tribes are afforded a kind of dual citizenship in the US: subject to the traditional rule of their tribal government and also that of the federal government.  How does the tribal ideal of cooperative agreement square with the “founding fathers” vision for majority rule? And what obligation do tribal communities have in honoring the settler system of governance?

Crandall (Yavapai-Apache), Associate Professor of History at Arizona State University School of Historical, Philosophical and Religious Studies, and author of These People Have Always Been a Republic.

Elie Mystal, justice correspondent for The Nation, Alfred Knobler Fellow at the Type Media Center and the author of Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution (The New Press, 2022) now in paperback, talks about today's opinions from the Supreme Court as they work through the remaining cases from this term.  In a 7-2 ruling, the Court dismissed challenges to the Indian Child Welfare Act, allowing preferences for Native American parents in adoptions to remain in place.

Professor Angelique EagleWoman is the Director of the Native American Law and Sovereignty Institute at Mitchell Hamline School of Law. She joined Jason to explain the significance of today's historic decision by the Supreme Court, upholding tribal sovereignty when it comes to adoption of Native children.

Since the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in McGirt v. Oklahoma in which the court found that Congress had never disestablished the Muscogee Nation's reservation, several more criminal cases have materialized involving the interpretation of Tribal jurisdiction on reservations outside of the Five Tribes (Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Muscogee, and Seminole). One case in particular, Oklahoma v. Brester, involved crimes committed on the Peoria and Ottawa reservations and therefore should be tried in federal court given that the Tribe's 1867 Treaty boundaries remain intact. Indian Law & Gaming Practice Group Chair Mike McBride represents the Peoria Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma before the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals and the district court. Mike discusses the history of the Peoria Tribe's terminated, but later restored, federal relationship, and how the decision in Brester affirmed that the reservations had never been disestablished and the Peoria Tribe's significant powers over the reservation remain intact.About Mike McBrideConnect with Crowe & Dunlevy:Website | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn

This is the story of the resurrection of a tribe who had lost its sovereignty and ultimately, its hope. And it's the story of a retired elder who had a vision and devoted his remaining years to bringing the tribe back to its glory. It's also the story of a young new Chairman who led a tribe from corrupt and chaotic leadership to flourishment and victory. Today, you'll hear the inspiring story of Andrew (Dru) Alejandre, Tribal Chairman of the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki, and Board Chairman of Tepa LLC. (“Chairman” to the Paskenta is equivalent to the title, “Chief” in other tribes.) In this episode you'll hear about: • Chairman Dru's ancestor, Andrew Freeman, and listen to a fascinating recording of him speaking in his Nomlaki tongue • The 300-member Paskenta band of Nomlaki Indians and their reservation in Corning, California • Paskenta Brewery and Distillery in the Rolling Hills Casino • The unlawful termination of the tribe and its restoration in 1994, due to the vision and determination of Chairman Dru's grandpa, Everett Freeman – spoiler alert, Indian taco sales were a contributor to the cause • How Chairman Dru set out to bring corrupt tribal leaders to justice. We're talking a story of private jets and lavish trips with funds stolen from the tribe, culminating to a cyber-attack on the casinos and the need for armed guards – stuff you typically only see in the movies. • The tremendous growth of tribal commerce now that the proper leadership is in place. And speaking of - shout out to Justin Chester of the Paskenta Band of Nomlaki Indians-owned Tepa Companies, who was instrumental in introducing me to Chairman Dru. Yakoke, Justin! Tepa provides construction, engineering, environmental technology and more. Preference is given to American Indian applications, so check them out! @tepacompanies https://www.tepa.com/ Chairman Dru honors his grandpa, Everett Freeman's legacy by leading with wisdom and strength, while also exemplifying humility. Here is a leader that should not be underestimated. And here is a tribe whose sovereignty was regained and whose determination will not be shaken. Not bad for a man with a vision, and an Indian taco sale or two that helped make it all happen.

The Supreme Court is hearing a case that could dismantle the Indian Child Welfare Act, also known as ICWA. The law was passed in 1978 to combat a history of forced family separation in the United States and prevent the removal of Native children from their communities. But now, in Haaland v. Brackeen, ICWA could be completely overturned. In the third episode of Dissent, host Jordan Smith is joined by Rebecca Nagle, a journalist, citizen of the Cherokee Nation, and host of the podcast “This Land.” Smith and Nagle break down the case and its broad implications for laws based on tribes' political relationship with the U.S. government.If you'd like to support our work, go to theintercept.com/join — your donation, no matter what the amount, makes a real difference.

This week's episode covers the case of Haaland v. Brackeen, a case involving Tribal Sovereignty and (stop us if you've heard this before) an argument to overrule a decades-long statute because it was decided incorrectly in the first place.  Law starts at (06:50).

Rebecca Nagle, host of Crooked Media's This Land, joins Melissa, Leah, and Kate to recap the arguments in Haaland v. Brackeen. The case revolves around the Indian Child Welfare Act, which lays out a set of preferences for where Native American children can be placed for foster care and adoption. The challengers, white foster parents trying to adopt Native American children, are claiming a violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment. But as Rebecca explains, tribal sovereignty isn't racial-- it's political.Plus, we take a look at the midterm outcomes and what they mean for the courts.Listen to Season 2 of This Land, all about the  back story of Haaland v. Brackeen.Read Rebecca Nagle's piece in The Atlantic, "The Supreme Court Case That Could Break Native Sovereignty."

Some folks on the internet have been trying to "one weird trick" our way to saving Roe by claiming that tribal sovereignty could help ensure abortion access. Well, not only is this wrong, it's offensively wrong. OA brings you the deep-dive on Indian Law (yes, that's what it's called...) with a refresher on McGirt v. Oklahoma, and why none of that equals an instant abortion rights fix. After that, a wildcard question – now that Roe is being overturned, does that mean justices committed perjury in their confirmation hearings? Links: McGirt v.
