EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the powerful presence of Whitehawk, a Native American man from the early 20th century. Dressed in traditional attire, Whitehawk gazes directly into the camera with an unwavering intensity that speaks to the deep connection he holds with the land and his heritage. The intricately beaded clothing adorns his body, while a feather headdress adorns his head, signifying his status and spirituality within his community. In his hands, he holds a simple yet effective hunting tool - a bow, a testament to his skill and self-sufficiency. The date on this photograph is October 31, 1913, a time when the world was rapidly changing around Native American communities. This image offers a poignant glimpse into a way of life that was soon to be lost, as industrialization and western expansion encroached upon their territories. Whitehawk's unbroken gaze serves as a reminder of the resilience and strength of Native American people, who continue to honor and preserve their rich cultural heritage to this day.
