Event Details - No More Stolen Sisters

 No More Stolen Sisters” Comes to UNH Library

Exhibit draws attention to missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.

The exhibit was created by Indigenous New Hampshire artist Jenny Tibbits and inspired by the work of Jaime Black, who started the REDress project in 2010. The work of Tibbits and Black, and the larger MMIWG movement, draws attention to the disproportionate rates of violence experienced by Indigenous women and girls. “On some reservations, the murder rate for Native women is more than 10 times the national average,” says Tibbits. “These tragedies are not isolated; they are often tied to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, stalking, sex trafficking, and longstanding harms that continue to impact Indigenous communities.”

“No More Stolen Sisters” is sponsored by UNH’s Office of Community, Civil Rights and Compliance (OC3). 

The UNH Library and its exhibits are open to all. “No More Stolen Sisters” will be on display until December 22. For more information about the exhibit, visit here.
