Reply -  
That's a really important and complex question, and it highlights how legal precedents, even those seemingly focused on one area, can have ripple effects across social justice movements. While Pierce v. Society of Sisters (1925) directly dealt with compulsory public education and the right of parents to choose private schooling for their children, its implications for the abolition movement against human trafficking are more nuanced and indirect but still significant. Here's how we can break it down:
Direct Holding of Pierce v. Society of Sisters
First, let's clarify the core of the case. Oregon had passed a law requiring all children between the ages of eight and sixteen to attend public schools. The Society of Sisters, which operated Catholic schools, and a military academy challenged this law, arguing it unconstitutionally interfered with their property rights and the liberty of parents to direct the education of their children.
The Supreme Court ultimately sided with the Society of Sisters, holding that the Oregon law violated the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The Court recognized a fundamental right of parents to direct the upbringing and education of their children.
Indirect Implications for the Abolition Movement:
While Pierce didn't directly address trafficking or exploitation, its emphasis on fundamental rights and individual liberty has several indirect but potentially powerful implications for the abolition movement:
 * Recognition of Fundamental Rights: The case firmly established the principle that individuals possess fundamental rights that the state cannot unreasonably infringe upon. This concept is central to the abolition movement, which argues for the fundamental right to freedom and bodily autonomy for all individuals being exploited in the sex trade, drug trafficking, and other violent industries. By recognizing unenumerated rights beyond those explicitly listed in the Constitution, Pierce strengthens the legal basis for arguing against the violation of these fundamental rights in the context of trafficking.
 * Liberty and Autonomy: The Court's emphasis on the "liberty of parents and guardians to direct the upbringing and education of children under their control" underscores the importance of individual autonomy and the right to make fundamental decisions about one's life and well-being. The abolition movement champions the autonomy of individuals being trafficked, arguing that their exploitation strips them of their liberty and their ability to make free and informed choices. Pierce provides a legal precedent for recognizing and protecting this sphere of individual liberty against unwarranted state intrusion.
 * Challenging State Overreach: Pierce stands as a landmark case limiting the power of the state to impose uniform solutions and disregard individual choices in fundamental areas. This principle can be applied to challenge state actions or inactions that perpetuate or fail to adequately address human trafficking. For instance, arguments can be made that laws or policies that fail to adequately protect victims or hold traffickers accountable represent a failure of the state to uphold the fundamental rights recognized in cases like Pierce.
 * Foundation for Broader Rights: The reasoning in Pierce contributed to the development of a broader understanding of unenumerated rights protected by the Due Process Clause. This paved the way for the recognition of other fundamental rights related to privacy, bodily integrity, and personal autonomy, which are all deeply relevant to the fight against human trafficking. Arguments against exploitation often hinge on the violation of these inherent rights.
 * International Influence (Indirect): While Pierce is a US Supreme Court case, its emphasis on fundamental rights and individual liberty has influenced legal and human rights discourse globally. The recognition of these principles in a prominent legal system like the US can lend weight to similar arguments being made in international forums and within other national legal systems advocating for the abolition of exploitation.
Limitations and Nuances:
It's crucial to acknowledge that the connection between Pierce and the abolition movement is indirect. Pierce did not directly address issues of exploitation, trafficking, or the sex trade. The legal arguments in trafficking cases primarily focus on statutes specifically designed to address these crimes, as well as constitutional principles like the Thirteenth Amendment's prohibition of slavery and involuntary servitude.
However, the underlying principles of individual liberty, autonomy, and the protection of fundamental rights established in Pierce v. Society of Sisters provide a valuable foundation and a powerful rhetorical tool for advocates working to end the wrongful selling and buying of people worldwide. It reinforces the idea that individuals have inherent rights that must be protected against both state overreach and private exploitation.

When were the most native american supreme court cases concerning schools and abuse?

BUT native americans were granted citizenship first in 1924 ... 
 

The period with the most Native American Supreme Court cases concerning schools and abuse appears to be in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, primarily focused on the Indian boarding school system. Key cases and developments during this time include: 
Early 19th Century:
Late 19th and Early 20th Centuries:
  • The establishment and operation of Indian boarding schools aimed at assimilating Native American children into white culture led to numerous abuses and legal challenges. 
  • Meriam Report (1928):
    This report exposed the horrific conditions in boarding schools, including insufficient food, overcrowded dorms, substandard medical care, and exploitative child labor, according to the Equal Justice Initiative. 
Mid to Late 20th Century:
Modern Era:
  • Continued Challenges: While the boarding school era is largely over, the legacy of abuse continues to affect Native American communities, leading to ongoing legal and policy debates. 
Key Takeaways:
  • The most prominent period for Native American Supreme Court cases related to schools and abuse was the late 19th and early 20th centuries, with the focus on the Indian boarding school system. 
  • The Meriam Report (1928) highlighted the horrific conditions in these schools, which were designed to force assimilation. 
  • The Indian Child Welfare Act (1978) and subsequent Supreme Court decisions have sought to address the legacy of abuse and protect Native American families

I'm writing to follow up on 

a) the puncturing of my back tire at Harbin a few weeks (regarding psychopathologies ??? of 'little john" who may be a pool cleaner with a fancy Aiper swimming pool vacuum cleaning robot, and see below)  ... which I still haven't heard back about from anyone at Harbin Heart Consciousness Church ... 

b) the car parking in front of mine in the middle of the night around 1 pm to obstruct my departure, but I was able to get around this curious vehicle, when my license plate was erroneously entered in the Harbin database ... giving me a  very limited relationship with the state of California law enforcement ... for example ... if the car parked in front of mine carried a gun slinger / or a slave prostitute with foreign mercenary soldiers' 'connections "... for example  ... 

c) "little john" pointing his finger to his head ("little john") ... 

(which is the name Heather Dance Yogini Christensen gave to contrast "little john" with 'Jonny Strieter' she said, after I asked her what she would do regarding the tire puncture after this happened) 

...as "little john"  wished me Merry Xmas laughing both mirthfully and kind of evilly too (while I was wearing whimsically a Santa Claus hat in the pool area) and as if to threaten shooting me in the head ...  (and does he have a weapon in that end upper locker in the 2nd floor changing room?)

d) ... well, having just come from Harbin Yoga soaking in the warm pool for ~2 hours, and then seen "little john" near the heart-shaped pool as red as red can be as if he were having a psychopathic psychiatric episode or a heart attack even,  I'd like to. to call for a MD psychiatric (or perhaps cardiac ) evaluation into deeply psychopathological at times' "little john" ... (and glad I've sought US federal protection for my mother, brother and myself many months ago in some of these regards ... and while at Harbin too)

d i ) as I was sitting talking with some Harbinites in the front square hot pool, I saw a Harbin security person come up to a someone nearby ... and say "Excuse me sir ... (and was the security person about to ask this person to leave Harbin ... and at "little john's" suggestion even ... ?)


Seeking to stay alive as I grow MIT OCW-centric wiki World Univ & Sch, and develop my 2nd actual-virtual Harbin Hot Springs' ethnographic project as well, and in growing a WUaS abolition movement worldwide in all 200 countries and for speakers of all 7159 known living languages, and at Harbin too ... to abolish the wrongful buying and selling of people in the illegal sex, drugs, violence etc industries internationally and their latent networks of violence  ... and as US federal and state of CAlifornia (and international law, and uniformed services' law too) legal processes work effectively together in new ways ... and to protect people ... 


What happened to my tire at Harbin? 


And please see too ... and email to Jon Strieter and Heather Dance Yogini Christensen in many of these regards -

Dear Heather & Jon, 

Did 'little john' - whose name you told to me, Dance Yogi Heather, after my tire was punctured a few weeks ago, threaten to put a bullet in my head this morning in the pool area, with a gesture? (And does he have a weapon in the upstairs' changing room upper locker closest to the exit?)

Have you all read -


- recently? And is Harbin Heart Consciousness Church continuing to live the future, moving on beyond, for example, Xmas, and Easter and other religious holidays too? And if so how (and with emerging longevity and aging reversal genetic drugs, FDA approved)? 

Yogically, abolitionally, Friendly Quaker greetings, Namaste, best wishes, Happy Harbin Yoga soaking meditations, 
Scott
