Amos Two Bulls, Lakota Sioux, by Gertrude Käsebier, ca. 1900
I found these amazing portraits and images of Native Americans at the turn of the 19th century on Flickr from random Library of Congress streams.
This is probably not universal, but all I feel when I see these is extreme sadness, and frustration that to this day, native cultures of the world are constantly under assault, by “civilization”… What a different world it would be if humanity was not such a destructive force, and considered its actions.
