Tom Jones: Seeing Clearly—What Photography Reveals about Native American Identity and Perception

All tickets have been reserved. Please join us in overflow seating to view an HD live video stream of the lecture.

Tom Jones, assistant professor of photography at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, will explain how his Ho-Chunk identity helps him to challenge our perceptions and assumptions of Native people, offering new perspectives of tribal members as active agents in the 21st century. Jones works closely with his tribe to portray them from the inside out, as opposed to the traditional view of the outsider looking in.
