"In this op-ed, Ruth H. Hopkins (Cankudutawin-Red Road Woman), a
Dakota/Lakota Sioux writer, biologist, attorney, and former tribal
judge, explains how the Trump administration is trying to remove the
classification that designates Native tribes as unique nations."

The US government has a long sordid history of breaking and ignoring
treaties whenever they were inconvenient, so this wouldn't be unusual -
but still utterly vile.
