Native American Woman With Child – 1930
Here we see a woman carrying a child in a helpless manner while she was standing at a train station – as depicted in the background. The photo was taken back in the 1930s, and from all indications, the state of the picture is clearly understood as it was taken while the world was in deep economic distress. We can be sure how hard it was for indigenous tribes to survive in such a time as this, especially women with children.
A Young Cree Man – 1903
Here we see a man who was a member of the Cree tribe – one of the most popular First Nations groups in North America. However, their population was always on the lower end as they suffered a high death rate due to fetal pandemics the tribe was undergoing. In addition, continued tribe wars played a critical role in lowering their population. The tribe is split into several groups, and now they live in their normal community, protecting their own lives and possessions.
