Honor the Treaties | The Film

Honor the Treaties is a documentary short directed by Eric Becker about photographer Aaron Huey’s work on the Pine Ridge Reservation.  Charting his movement from journalist to advocate, the film details Aaron’s recent collaboration with artist Shepard Fairey.  Ultimately, the film questions outsider’s abilities to tell accurate stories about poverty, exploitation and history.  Aaron’s work on Pine Ridge appears as this month’s cover story in National Geographic magazine.  Check it out HERE.  Photography by Aaron Huey
