NPR TO SPONSOR DEBATE ON NATIVE AMERICAN SOVEREIGNTY
ALBUQUERQUE, August 27, 2001-- More than five hundred years after
Columbus arrived in the "New World," Americans remain somewhat divided
about the place of indigenous peoples in modern society. The question of
whether or not tribes should enjoy sovereignty is one of our most
contested legal battlefields. Should Native Americans on reservations
be exempt from state and federal laws, including environmental policies?
Can Indian peoples and tribal casinos declare themselves free of state
and federal taxes? How do we balance constitutional rights with treaty
obligations?
These questions will form the basis of a debate between former Bureau
of Indian Affairs (BIA) Director Kevin Gover and Tom Gede, Executive
Director of the Conference of Western Attorneys General.
The debate will be held Monday, September 10, 2001 at 7:30 pm before a
live audience at the Continuing Education Conference Center (1634
University Boulevard, NE) in Albuquerque.
Justice Talking is a weekly National Public Radio program on
constitutional issues, hosted by Margot Adler and produced by the
Annenberg Public Policy Center at the University of Pennsylvania.
Justice Talking is broadcast on public radio stations nationwide and on
the Internet at www.justicetalking.org.
This debate, Nations Within: The Conflict of Native American Sovereignty
is co-sponsored by KUNM Radio (89.9FM), and the University of New Mexico
School of Law. It will air on public radio stations across the US this
fall. The event is free and open to the public, which will have the
opportunity to ask questions during the event.
