We are excited to share the work of our summer intern who is digitizing, cataloging, and creating online access to photos of the American Indian Movement from 1966 – 1981. A favorite photo is of protestors marching at North Park Blocks in 1976. bit.ly/44BcTWf
Color photograph from 1976 of a group of protestors marching down a street. A native woman on left wears a white shirt and jeans and has her right hand raised in a fist. A man in the middle has on a red shirt with a red bandana wrapped around his shoulder length hair as a headband. Members of the crowd carry a UFW AFL-CIO flag and various protest signs, the most of prominent of which reads "NO MORE GENOCIDE IN OUR NAME". Another man in a red shirt and jeans carries what appears to be a speaker's staff or spear that is adorned with feathers.
