Paging James Clifford

For Jackie, Christina, and Andy: Remember at the James Clifford lecture how he was talking about how Native Americans were still, contrary to popular belief, creating active futures for themselves within their current sovereignties? This is the best thing I've heard in a while: Cecilia Fire Thunder, head of the Oglala Sioux tribe in South Dakota, is opening a Planned Parenthood on her reservation in order to serve the women of SD after the monstrously inhuman abortion ban (no exceptions for rape and incest) that they just passed there goes into effect. So cool.
