Self Help Graphics & Art invites you to What TRIBE, a dynamic multi-media exhibition curated by Douglas Miles, artist and founder of Apache Skateboards.

The What TRIBE project is designed to discuss negative stereotypical images of Native Americans in media and other diverse cultures. What TRIBE aims to provoke creativity not controversy, discussion not discrimination, and awareness not apathy. The reason being negative stereotypical, racist images of Native Americans (and other people of color) are now somewhat considered en vogue and might even go as far as to say fashionable. This project aims to counter and aid in the removal of these stereotypical images from the American pop culture visual landscape. What TRIBE uses photography, art, web media, film, and any means necessary to bring about a positive change for the future.
