Three Native photographers tackle topics they’re personally drawn to in a new series of photo essays at the National Museum of the American Indian. One captures the culture and people of the Genizaro in New Mexico. Another looks at the complexity couples face navigating blood quantum as they build a family. And another documents the Navajo Nations struggles to cope with the COVID-19 pandemic. Today on Native America Calling, we guide you through the “Developing Stories: Native Photographers in the Field” exhibit with Tailyr Irvine (Salish and Kootenai), photojournalist and co-founder of Indigenous Photograph; Donovan Quintero (Diné), assistant editor at the Navajo Times; and Russel Albert Daniels (Diné and Ho-Chunk).
