    Outline of United States Federal Indian Law and Policy

    Outline of United States federal Indian law and policy The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to United States federal Indian law and policy: Federal Indian policy – establishes the relationship between the United States Government and the Indian Tribes within its borders. The Constitution gives the federal government primary responsibility for dealing with tribes. Law and U.S. public policy related to Native Americans have evolved continuously since the founding of the United States. David R. Wrone argues that the failure of the treaty system was because of the inability of an individualistic, democratic society to recognize group rights or the value of an organic, corporatist culture represented by the tribes.[1] U.S. Supreme Court cases List of United States Supreme Court cases involving Indian tribes Citizenship Adoption Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians v.

The class worked in collaboration with the Quinault Indian Nation, the Aberdeen Revitalization Movement, and community organizations. The students were part of the Evergreen program “Resource Rebels: Environmental Justice Movements Building Hope,” which explored the intersections of environmental issues with social issues of race, class, and gender. The program was taught by myself, a geographer working in Native Studies, and Karen Gaul, an anthropologist working in Sustainability Studies. In fall quarter, the class focused on Native American environmental justice issues, and hosted the 1st annual Indigenous Climate Justice Symposium at the Evergreen Longhouse, which included Quinault Indian Nation President Fawn Sharp.
