Jilly Horowitz has published “Pursuing Restorative Justice for the Legacy of Federal Indian Boarding Schools” in the Cardozo Journal of Dispute Resolution.

An excerpt:

The federal government started to acknowledge its role in causing devastating damage throughout Native communities, but acknowledgement is just the beginning of restorative justice. Because the federal government has not communicated any plans for ongoing restorative and reparative work, this Note will analyze the federal government’s efforts to date. Finally, the Note will conclude with a discussion of what an ongoing restorative justice practice might look like and how this work would help to restore Native sovereignty.
