Native artivists draw on a long tradition of speaking truth to power. For KNPR’s Native Nevada podcast, a few of them talked about the messages of their predecessors and their own workJean LaMarrCourtesy of Nevada Art MuseumJean LaMarr told the Nevada Appeal in 2003, “The concerns of my life manifest in my art, which is about racism, stereotypes, wars, and the destruction of Mother Earth.” Great Basin Native Artists founder and curator Melissa Melero-Moose told KNPR about seeing LaMarr’s work when she was a student at the Institute of American Indian Art in the early ’90s: “My mind exploded. … She has a great story to tell about activism and going to school at (UC) Berkeley in the ’70s. I mean, she’s telling the story of women being exploited so badly over the years and stereotypes and just the sexism that was involved in not just females in history, but specifically Indigenous females. So, it spoke directly to me.”Sana SanaReno-based artivist Sana Sana works in man
