 </p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-size: 14.4px">The National Congress of Americ
 an Indians (NCAI) Youth Commission is hosting a virtual rally in conjunctio
 n with Protect ICWA organizers. </span></p>\n<p>\n	<span style="font-size: 
 14.4px">This event is for Native Youth in effort to raise awareness about t
 he upcoming Supreme Court hearing that threatens to overturn ICWA and the p
 rotections it provides Native children. For over 40 years\, the Indian Chil
 d Welfare Act (ICWA) has protected American Indian and Alaska Native kids b
 y keeping them in the care of extended family or tribes whenever possible. 
 On November 9\, a small group of opponents in Haaland v. Brackeen will argu
 e in front of the Supreme Court that those protections should be taken away
 . If opponents succeed in dismantling ICWA\, they will have also cleared th
 e way for a larger attack on Native families\, Native land\, and tribal sov
 ereignty. </span></p>\n
