Collection Overview
Collection Description & Creator Information
- Content Warning
Racist, colonialist, and sexist language were used to describe many of the items in this collection. In most cases, descriptions were creator-supplied. In other cases, in which photographs lacked identifying information, descriptions were created by an archivist. However, the collection is a candidate for ongoing reparative description work. We hope that researchers will engage in a dialogue with staff about issues in the collection and changes that could help.

Collection History
- Appraisal
No appraisal information is available.
- Processing Information
This collection was identified, researched, and described by Heather Shannon in 2005, with further research and description by Valerie Addonizio in 2009. Finding aid written by Valerie Addonizio in 2012. Researcher Paula R. Fleming also provided date and attribution information on specific items.
The existence of harmful language was noted in the collection-level description note by Faith Charlton in 2023 as an initial step per reparative description-related work.
As part of reparative description efforts in 2024, archivists removed the word "sq---" from item titles and replaced it with "wife" or "woman" based on available context. Former item titles, which had been derived from the 1877 Index of the Descriptive Catalogue of Photographs of North American Indians, remain evident in Scope and Contents notes.
