Recommended Resources

Primary Sources

Find images, newspaper articles, and other primary source materials. These can be useful for identifying Native American perspectives. For contemporary artists, web search is best.

Scholarly Journals

You can find articles from these journals through Library Search, but the specific focuses of these journals may warrant searching through them individually in case they get buried in your broader searches.
