With the Navajo Nation being in the national political spotlight lately, it got me thinking about the many indigenous political images that I have never shown the public. Here is a picture of Navajo politician, Wenona Benally Baldenegro, that I donated to Wikipedia today. I donated this image because one of my core goals in photography is to capture powerful moments in Dinétah that elude outsiders. What you see here is a powerful image of an indigenous woman, a Diné woman. This is the type of image I want the entire world to see of how indigenous women look.
