NASAI 2024 Featured Session: Indigenous Photography with Jaida Grey Eagle

Jaida Grey Eagle is an Oglala Lakota freelance documentary photographer currently located in St. Paul, Minn. She has a keen eye for detail and a passion for storytelling. Her photographs transcend mere images. They convey narratives that evoke emotion and provoke thought. She’ll discuss the ecosystem of photographic history that has been stuck in the past and has created a legacy of erasure for Native peoples. Grey Eagle’s work empowers Native youth and broader audiences by educating and shifting perspectives while authentically and fully representing Native communities. Through her lens, she challenges stereotypes, confronts erasure, and amplifies voices that have been marginalized. Join us to delve into the intricate tapestry of Native American identity, culture, and history.
