Today's podcast features Matthew Handler, Brooklyn Law School Class of 2010. Matt won first place in the 2009 Chief Justice John B. Doolin Writing Competition sponsored by the Oklahoma Supreme Court for his article, “Tribal Law and Disorder: A Look at the System of Broken Justice in Indian Country and the Steps Needed to Fix It” published in the Oklahoma Supreme Court Sovereignty Symposium Compendium (2009).

In this conversation, Matt talks about what led him to write the article, the first section of which has an historical overview of Indian Law.
