[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] To say racism is involved is kind of liking turning the story on its head. The only reason the father was able to get the baby back in the first place was a law that was put in place to protect his race, right? [/quote] Well, no. Why is there an Indian Child Welfare Act? Because of the long, horrible, and still on-going racist history of taking Indian children away from their families and tribes. See, for example, here: http://www.npr.org/2011/10/25/141662357/incentives-and-cultural-bias-fuel-foster-system Does society assume that affluent white parents will do a better job bringing up the children of poor people than the poor people themselves? Yes. Why? Partly because of racism. See the Indian Child Welfare Act, above.[/quote]
