Description of Pictures: Nation to Nation: Treaties between the United States and American Indian Nations
September 21, 2014 – December 2021
From a young age, most Americans learn about the Founding Fathers, but are told very little about equally important and influential Native diplomats and leaders of Indian nations. Treaties lie at the heart of the relationship between Indian nations and the United States and this exhibition tells the story of that relationship, including the history and legacy of U.S.—American Indian diplomacy from the colonial period through the present.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. AMINN_181227_012.JPG: Andrew Jackson's pistol ca 1840 This half-stock, muzzle-loading percussion pistol, made by Phillip Creamer, bears the inscription "Andrew Jackson" on the stock plate.
2. AMINN_181227_030.JPG: Treaty Rights Today
3. AMINN_181227_032.JPG: The Struggle Continues
4. AMINN_181227_035.JPG: Mile-marker post 2016-17 Standing Rock Sioux Reservation, North Dakota Indigenous people and their allies from around the globe joined the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe to protest a pipeline built without adequately consulting the Native Nation most affected. The protesters, who call themselves water protectors, established three camps near the pipeline's planned crossing of the Missouri River. To show how far some had traveled, they created this mile-marker post. It stood in the Oceti Sakowin (Great Sioux Nation) camp, the largest of the three. In January 2017, protestors endured blizzards and temperatures that fell to forty degrees below zero.
5. AMINN_181227_054.JPG: Our people have tolerated this kind of treatment for over 200 years, and enough is enough. -- Dave Archambault II, Chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, 2016
6. AMINN_181227_058.JPG: The Black Snake in Sioux Country, 2016 The Army Corps of Engineers rejected the pipeline's original route (dotted line) because an oil spill could foul the drinking water of Bismarck, North Dakota. They then approved a route through ancestral Sioux land. The 1851 Horse Creek (Fort Laramie) Treaty defined the gray-shaded area as Sioux territory. A later treaty and acts of Congress altered the boundaries, but the Sioux retained certain rights in the entire territory. The pipeline threatened those rights as well as their water.
7. AMINN_181227_085.JPG: They worked really hard for there [sic] lives to be safe. They were suffring [sic] because they had no food. They worked really hard for ther [sic] cities [?] to get food!!
8. AMINN_181227_089.JPG: I think they need more arrow heads and wepons [sic] in the exitut [sic]
9. AMINN_181227_092.JPG: Shame on the United States! Proud of China!
10. AMINN_181227_094.JPG: The storeys [sic] there really good.
11. AMINN_181227_096.JPG: I like the food and love to see stuff made by the American Indians! It was amazing!
12. AMINN_181227_100.JPG: Excellent. Long overdue. Bring Trump to see this! 12/28/18 Trump can't read. He wouldn't understand it.
13. AMINN_181227_112.JPG: This exhibit moves from half-truths to bold face lies. As a citizen of the Cherokee Nation of OK I find the depiction of my people to be inaccurate & colonized. This exhibit is infuriating & lying to those who see it.
14. AMINN_181227_115.JPG: Very interesting but there's nothing in the Winedot [sic] tribe. It would be better if there wer [sic] Winedot [sic] things. Thanks
15. AMINN_181227_122.JPG: The Anishinaabe section is inaccurate, it focuses on Canada's First Nation tribe but not Northern Michigans tribes.
16. AMINN_181227_125.JPG: I wish the Anishinuabe section would focus more on Native American tribes in the United States.
