Glad I stumbled upon this interview to hear some more background about the author, the "issue", and what inspired this particular book. I initially "discovered" this book through a discussion via The National Constitution Center about Native Americans and the Supreme Court

I'm only partway through Chapter 2, but thoroughly enjoying reading it so far. It reminds me quite a bit of a book I read in 2022 called Standoff: Why Reconciliation Fails Indigenous People and How to Fix It by Bruce McIvor, a Canadian lawyer, historian & partner at First Peoples Law LLP.

Thanks for uploading and sharing this interview!
