NAGPRA Comics: Community-Based Comics
​about Repatriation

We work collaboratively with Native Nations to develop NAGPRA Comics. All issues are free in PDF form under the Creative Commons license. Feel free to download and share!
Paper copies are available for purchase: To order a bound paper copy at cost, you can contact the Native-owned business Tribal Print Source  at (760) 597-2650, or email sales@tribalprintsource.com. 

Or, you can print your own to distribute locally: You can download the PDF, and provide it to a press near you. Please keep in mind, this is a grant-funded project and no profits should be made from the sale of the comic (unless you are the Native community who co-wrote it). Thank you!

NAGPRA Comics 1:

Journeys to Complete the Work... And changing the way we bring Native American ancestors home.

Co-written with Shannon Martin and the Ziibiwing Center of Anishinabe Culture & Lifeways (2017). This issue addresses the NAGPRA 10.11 regulations regarding the return of "culturally unidentifiable individuals," or Native ancestors/human remains that are not associated with a particular Tribe.

There will be an addendum coming to this issue! More info here.
