Indigenous women are the victims of murder or violence at more than 10x the national average, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. And with an incredibly low prosecution rate, both indigenous and non-indigenous people alike are demanding this issue be brought to light.

Red is the official MMIW campaign color and has been used in art for years to represent and bring awareness to the thousands of people murdered or missing.

This includes art from creators like Nayana LaFond who uses the color in her Portraits in Red series that features real people affected by this crisis.

But Nayana is not the only one.

From The REDress Project by artist Jaime Black to paintings, demonstrations, and fashion shows across the U.S. - creators are making sure their voices are heard.
