Native American women are murdered at more than 10 times the national average.
Tribal courts can not prosecute non-Indians. United States Federal Indian Policy negates Tribal Courts to pursue criminal charges against any person not registered in the official Tribal Registry- it is this loophole in outdated policy that incites the loss of women from a dwindling race.
The true number of missing Native American women is unknown.
Missing Indigenous consists of an entirely Native American Cast & Crew, named Team RedFawn for the 48 Hour Film Project, and to honor political prisoner and water protector, Red Fawn Fallis, arrested in Standing Rock on October 27th, 2016. Please support Red Fawn Fallis by donating to her legal defense fund.
