Found in the ArchiveThese photographs were found in a recent accession to the Roberto Hernandez Center Records (UWM Archival Collection 116,  Accession 2019-018, Box 1).Per the captions on the back of the first two photographs, they depict Vernon Bellecourt and Russell Means, leaders of the American Indian Movement, during their visit to UW-Milwaukee. The photographs are undated, but a search through the UWM Post reflects that both Means and Bellecourt were featured speakers during UWM’s 1981 Native American Week. Bellecourt conducted a seminar on “Racism and the American Indian,” and Means spoke about “The American Prison System.” Information about the individual and the event in the last photograph of this series is unknown.  -- source link
