“A lot of judges don’t know a lot about federal Indian law. Or even
people in Congress. We have a lot of people who are making the decisions
that directly & deeply impact our lives, who don’t really understand a
lot of the basics about how the law works.”

[...] “the same might be true for the reservations of the Cherokee,
Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole. As much as 19 million acres could be
returned to the “Five Tribes” who were forced West on the Trail of Tears.”
