To be Indigenous in the modern day is a daunting, if not completely silent task. Few know what that means, and the Indigenous existence has little context to it for most Americans. Gregg Deal has a unique story of these concepts, coupled with his own life’s work as an artist, an activist and critical thinker.

Through his work—paintings, murals, performance art, filmmaking and spoken word—Deal critically examines issues and tells stories of decolonization and appropriation that affect Indian country.
