Lacreeshaw Jumping Eagle Richards & Mackenzie Antelope

Lacreeshaw Jumping Eagle Richards and Mackenzie Antelope's cases are two that are way too familiar in Native Communities.

Their cases aren't that old.  These cases show the systemic racial indifferences suffered by Indigenous people not only in America but also in Canada.  Indigenous people in the US. and in Canada are continuously overlooked by their governments, local police and the media.  

Absolutely NOTHING is being done to find these two kids.  There is literally zero information on them.

Please listen.  Do what you can to help support this show.

Thank You.

This is the link to the FBI website where Indigenous families can REQUEST help from the FBI to search for their loved ones etc.  just go to the site and look at the process indigenous families must go through just to get help.  It’s absolutely ridiculous.
