SUMMARY:[Virtual] 2020 DC Indian Law Conference
DESCRIPTION:From the global pandemic to racial justice and the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in McGirt v. Oklahoma\, 2020 has presented novel challenges and opportunities\, bringing Indian Country and the nation to a turning point. Please join us for the Virtual D.C. Indian Law Conference on November 5-6\, 2020 as we hear how Tribes are navigating this unparalleled chapter in modern history. Panel topics will include Looking Forward After McGirt\, the Impacts of COVID-19 on Indian Country\, Successes and Challenges of the Last Four Years\, and Racial Disparity and Ethics in the Indian Law Practice. \n\n  \nRegistered attendees received information on how to access virtual panels via email. Contact meetings@fedbar.org with questions. \n\nAgenda\nAll Times Below are in Eastern Standard Time (EST) \n\nThursday\, November 5\n\n12:00 – 1:30 p.m. ET\nAn Overview of Indian Country Successes and Failures Over the Past Four Years \nThis panel will highlight Indian Country successes and failures over the past four years.  Specifically\, panelists will examine the successes and failures of Congress and federal agencies. \n\nMaurisa Bell\, Associate\, Dentons US LLP (Moderator)\nElizabeth Carr\, Senior Native American Affairs Advisor\, National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center\nJoshua Clause\, Principal\, Clause Law PLLC\nHeather Sibbison\, Partner\, Chair of the Native American and Policy Practice\, Dentons US LLP\n\n2:30 – 4:00 p.m. ET\nThe Impact of COVID on Indian Country from Indian Country \nAs the world grapples with the pandemic\, Tribal Nations are contending with the pandemic’s disproportionate impacts to their communities. This dynamic panel of Tribal leaders and Indian law experts will discuss the pandemic’s unique economic and health impacts and how\, as sovereign nations\, Tribes are working to protect the safety and welfare of their communities. \n\nConnie Tsosie de Haro\, Democratic Counsel\, Senate Committee on Indian Affairs (Moderator)\nNicole Ducheneaux\, Partner\, Big Fire Law & Policy Group LLP\nSarah Harris\, Vice Chairwoman\, The Mohegan Tribe\nDoreen N. McPaul\, Attorney General\, Navajo Nation Department of Justice\nBryan Newland\, Chairman\, Bay Mills Indian Community\n\nFriday\, November 6\n12:00 – 1:30 p.m. ET\nLooking Forward After McGirt \nMcGirt v. Oklahoma was a landmark win for Indian country that confirmed time-honored Indian law principles in how Indian law cases are handled by the US Supreme Court. This acknowledgement is historic because of the geographic and possibly substantive reach of the decision. The decision is a significant and helpful clarification of Solem v. Bartlett\, one that dispels the notion that de facto diminishment/disestablishment is possible independent of statutory language. Justice Neil Gorsuch grasped the gravity of the ruling. He wrote\, “On the far end of the Trail of Tears was a promise…Today we are asked whether the land these treaties promised remains an Indian reservation for purposes of federal criminal law. Because Congress has not said otherwise\, we hold the government to its word.”  These powerful words necessitate us to ask where do we go from here? This esteemed panel discusses the potential future of Indian law after McGirt. \n\nSarah Crawford\, Associate\, Clause Law PLLC(Moderator)\nRiyaz Kanji\, Founding Member\, Kanji & Katzen PLLC\nArlinda Locklear\nJoel Williams\, Staff Attorney\, Native American Rights Fund (NARF)\n\n2:30 – 4:00 p.m. ET\nEthics and Racial Disparities in the Legal Profession   \nIn 2015\, the National Native American Bar Association published a first-of-its-kind study on the experiences of Native American attorneys across the legal profession\, shedding light on disparate experiences and widespread exclusion. This dynamic panel will address the report’s stark findings\, individual experiences in the professional setting\, as well as the mental health impacts of discrimination and racial trauma. \n\nAllie Greenleaf Maldonado\, Chief Judge\, Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians (Moderator)\nStephanie McIver\, Counseling Director\, University of New Mexico\nThomasina Real Bird\, President\, National Native American Bar Association & Partner\, Patterson Earnhart Real Bird & Wilson LLP\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\nRegistration is now closed.
