Repatriation is a human rights issue
Repatriation advocates have had some recent progress in both policy and practice when it comes to getting important items returned to tribes. But the ongoing effort to educate the elected officials, institutional leaders and the public requires time and resources.

Tune into Native America Calling to get an update on the eve of the biggest annual conference for people working in the repatriation field. The event is hosted by the Association on American Indian Affairs.

Also, get the latest about a repatriation dispute in Florida, where a real estate development company is trying to donate artifacts that were excavated from an area near the Miami Circle National Historic Landmark in Miami. The items were taken from a historic tribal village that is at least 2,000 years old.
