A gripping and illuminating investigation “that is far overdue” (Rachel Louise Snyder, author of No Visible Bruises) into the disappearance of Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind when she was eight months pregnant, highlighting the shocking epidemic of violence against Native American women in America and the societal ramifications of government inaction.

In the summer of 2017, twenty-two-year-old Savanna LaFontaine-Greywind vanished. A week after she disappeared, police arrested the white couple who lived upstairs from Savanna and emerged from their apartment carrying an infant girl. The baby was Savanna’s, but Savanna’s body would not be found for days.

The horrifying crime sent shock waves far beyond Fargo, North Dakota, where it occurred, and helped expose the sexual and physical violence Native American women and girls have endured since the country’s colonization.

With pathos and compassion, Searching for Savanna confronts this history of dehumanization toward Indigenous women and the government’s complicity in the crisis. Featuring in-depth interviews, personal accounts, and trial analysis, this timely book investigates these injustices and the decades-long struggle by Native American advocates for meaningful change.

I read this book and was heartbroken for Savannah the most as she was robbed of one of the most magical and happiest times of her entire life, I was heartbroken for her parents as I can't even comprehend the devastation and emptiness they must feel, and outrage at the number of Native Americans that go missing every year and it is t treated as it would if it was a different nationality. The American justice system should be a shamed of themselves from the person who takes the report all the way up. The land that thos justice system practices on was once land that belonged to the Natives.

this was very interesting albeit very sad.

This book reveals some hard to hear details, so that’s why I like that the author also gave us some small insight as to who Savanna was. She was a precious native woman taken too soon.

Hate reviews 15 word minimum is ridiculous. Why do I even do this? Burdensome, comments should be optional not demanded.

Truth is so hard!
