The Erasure and Disappearance of Indigenous Women
Rockey Robbins, Stephanie Wescoup, Gaul Nahar

Abstract
In response to the latest statistics regarding the violence and disappearance of Indigenous women, the authors of this paper attempt to honor the often overlooked sacrifices they make for the physical and spiritual well-being of Indigenous peoples.
