"BROKEN PROMISES: THE PINE RIDGE INDIAN RESERVATION"

Three-year-old C. J. Shot bathes among dishes. The Oglala concept of tiospayeÑthe unity of the extended familyÑmeans that homes are often overcrowded, especially with the severe housing shortage on the reservation. In 2008, when this photograph was made, 22 people lived in the three-bedroom house. "These houses aren't who we are," says Oglala activist Alex White Plume.
