Laramie artist Felicia Follum shared this news today on
her blog:
My poster "Incarceration" was recently used as a textbook cover for a
Native American History and Public Law textbook. I was ecstatic when I
received the hard copy in the mail. It looks great!!
The idea for this poster was largely inspired by growing up in Rapid
City, South Dakota, and seeing the mistreatment of, and racism toward,
Native Americans. The poster was created as part of a series addressing the conditions on American Indian Reservations (specifically Pine Ridge and Rosebud) after many hours of research. The photo is an unknown chief from a portrait photography book.
"Captured Justice: Native Nations and Public Law 280″ is by Duane Champagne and Carole Goldberg. You can purchase the book online at Carolina Academic Press or on Amazon.com.
