I wish I could say this has been remedied, but as you can see in our story, the youth in these facilities are still not protected. Watch āWho guards the guards?ā -our investigation into thousands of reports of sexual abuse by probation officers in LA: abcnews.go.com/US/video/kidsā¦

Bizarre to see someone take a victory lap during this moment. But also it's just wrong.
Twitter has always been a go-to place for live news. But often where does that news come from? Many of the video clips, photos, and accounts shared today were from reporters on the ground.
Iām proud to have been part of the @ABCNewsLive team reporting on this story with @LinseyDavis. And I am so grateful to the survivors who bravely shared their stories with us.
Iām coming too then! š¤ I learned so much about writing and storytelling from him.
Agreed. Harry is simply the best. Lucky to have learned from the š at NBC.
Hope you donāt mind if I pop in for class sometime, @HarrySmith
Well, I guess it's about time I made it social media official. After 12 remarkable years producing and reporting for @NBCNews, I'm embarking on a new chapter as a freelance journalist!
My latest story for @Stacker explores how Indigenous data warriors like @native4data & @echohawkd3 are fighting for data sovereignty: Indigenous systems for gathering and using data in spite of a system built to exclude them. Read it here: stacker.com/society/indigenoā¦

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.
Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.
So proud of you, Jo! Canāt wait to see your amazing work at CBS šš¼
Excited and honored to join the legendary team of journalists at @CBSNews. Send me your story ideas!
This university system is covering tuition and fees for Native American students, but could it ever make up for building these institutions on unceded Indigenous land? Watch my latest reporting for @NBCNewsNow! nbcnews.com/now/video/tuitioā¦

SCOTUS just validated what many have been saying for generations: the Indian Child Welfare Act is the gold standard of child welfare policy. This decision upholds the constitutionality of this law, respects Tribal sovereignty, and protects the best interests of Indian children.

Indian Country is breathing a big sigh of relief this morning. The widely held expectation was that ICWA would fall or be diminished in some way. Experts and advocates are calling this a win for tribal nations and their sovereignty.
Today the #SCOTUS upheld the Indian Child Welfare Act in an opinion authored by Justice Barrett. Much of the fight has been left for another day--in that #SCOTUS declined to reach some of the thorniest issues. But ICWA survives. So much to learn here. supremecourt.gov/opinions/22ā¦

A Pulitzer & a Peabody!! What an unbelievable 2 days! This feels like undeniable proof that Indigenous stories matter & that we should support Indigenous people to tell them. We are so grateful to survivors who shared with us & hope this means more people will hear their voices.
