Why Are So Many Indigenous Women Being Murdered? (w/ Rosalie Fish) | Change Agents #44
Today on Change Agents, an IRONCLAD original, Andy Stumpf speaks with Rosalie Fish about the crisis of missing and murdered indigenous women.
Rosalie is a member of the Cowlitz Tribe and a runner from the Muckleshoot Reservation in Auburn, Washington. She is a women’s track and field athlete at the University of Washington, where she was recently selected for a prestigious Truman Scholarship from the Harry S. Truman Scholarship Foundation. She often runs and trains with a red painted handprint on her face, dedicated to Indigenous women and girls who have been killed or disappeared.
Countless have gone missing, though numbers are hard to track for a variety of reasons. For example, as NativeHope.org notes, “The National Crime Information Center reports that, in 2016, there were 5,712 reports of missing American Indian and Alaska Native women and girls, though the US Department of Justice’s federal missing person database, NamUs, only logged 116 cases.”
Today on Change Agents, Rosalie talks about how this violence has affected her own family and indigenous communities around the country, and what can be done to address it.

When Americans Are Abducted Overseas (with Jere Van Dyk) | CA #20
Jere Van Dyk is a Pulitzer-nominated journalist and U.S. Army Veteran.
While working as a correspondent for The New York Times, he was embedded with the Mujahideen during their fight with the Soviet Union. He returned to Afghanistan after 9/11 as a CBS News reporter, and in 2006 he became the only journalist to go up into the mountains near the Pakistan border to the site where U.S. Army Ranger, Pat Tillman, was killed. His professional journey took a turn in 2008 — he was traveling through the Tribal Areas of Pakistan, in its borderlands with Afghanistan, and was held captive for 45 days. The incident is recounted in his critically acclaimed book, "Captive: My Time as a Prisoner of the Taliban."
Years later, while researching links among the Haqqani Network, ISIS, the Taliban, al-Qaeda, and the Council on Foreign Relations, he returned to the area to find who was responsible for his kidnapping. This trip inspired his book, "The Trade: My Journey into the Labyrinth of Political Kidnapping."

Escaping the Rohingya Genocide (with Abu Talib) | CA #16
Abu Talib is a member of Burma’s Rohingya refugee. According to the U.S. State Department, “On March 21, 2022, following a rigorous factual and legal analysis, the Secretary determined that members of the Burmese military committed genocide and crimes against humanity against Rohingya. Since the Holocaust, the United States has concluded only seven other times that genocide was committed. This determination marks the eighth.”
After Abu Talib spending weeks at sea, he was able to escape Burma, and became a refugee in Sri Lanka. Today, he has resettled to the United States as a citizen and helps other members of the Rohingya community navigate the citizen process.
On this episode of Change Agents, Andy talks to Abu Talib about the situation in Burma, his journey to the United States, and ways that the community can be helped.
