ABSTRACT

As one of the seven litigants in the Harjo et al. v. Pro-Football, Inc. 17  year legal case I  have become a grandfather, witnessed the passing of one of the litigants, and have seen numerous life changes. e Harjo et al. case has taught me that reaching justice on the merits of a legal case for Native Americans in the United States takes a very, very long time. To reach a sense of justice in the US, supposedly one of the most democratic nations in the world, should not be so dicult, but it is [for Native Nations].
