The Spin

Narrative A

The ICWA is one of the most important pieces of legislation when it comes to the rights of Native Americans, with this bipartisan ruling affirming the sovereignty of Native American tribes. The removal of Native children from their homes, through adoption or government-run boarding schools, was a weapon of cultural genocide. This ruling will protect the right of Native Americans to raise their children at home, immersed in their culture.

Narrative B

This decision, which was mostly decided on legal technicalities, will keep more Native children in abusive homes, depriving them of the rights children of other races enjoy. This racially discriminatory piece of legislation would not stand if it applied to any other race, and will force more Native children to endure utterly preventable mistreatment.
