The man crying is George Gillette, tribal chairman of the Mandan, Arikara, and Hidatsa tribes of North Dakota in 1948. He was forced under the threat of death of all his people to sign over the tribes’ homeland on the fertile floodplain of the Missouri River in order to build the Garrison Dam.

The final settlement legislation denied tribes’ right to use the reservoir shoreline for grazing, hunting, fishing or other purposes, including irrigation development and royalty rights on all subsurface minerals within the reservoir area.

After the dam was constructed, the three tribes were scattered, their communities and extended families flung to different shores of the 200-mile-long Lake Sakakawea.

This is what your freedom and democracy is built on.

In 1985, affordable consumer film was finally available to the massive Chinese populace. And the reign of film would continue for another 20 years until digital cameras gained widespread use around 2005. By 2009, a recycling plant on the outskirts of Beijing was overrun with film negatives destined for destruction. That’s where collector Thomas Sauvin comes in. Since then, he has amassed a collection of over half a million negatives featuring everyday Chinese life of the 80s and 90s. In 2013, Sauvin published a five-volume set of books based on the collection and recently he has begun sharing the colleciton on Instagram @beijing_silvermine.
