Standing Strong Project

The Standing Strong Project is an ongoing, multi-media, and community-based project that aims to uplift Indigenous peoples in reclaiming their narrative. Since the advent of photography, Indigenous peoples have been subjects of the Western lens. From the work of Edward S. Curtis, to the work of contemporary photographers, only one side of the story has been told. Today, we have the opportunity to reinvent the way we see ourselves.
