Native American History: It Must Be Taught

"In a major victory for Native American rights, the Supreme Court has upheld key provisions of the Indian Child Welfare Act, giving preference for adoption of Native American children to their tribes and families. The law was passed 45 years ago to protect tribal sovereignty and to correct past government abuses.

The author joins Hari Sreenivasan to explain why Indigenous history is essential to understanding modern America."
