Title
Inashah - Yakima
Curtis Caption
Many of the elderly and middle-aged Yakima, especially those of what was formerly the ruling class, feel the same dislike and suspicion of the white man that moved their fathers, in the uprising of 1855, to attempt to expel the newcomers from their territory. The brooding expression of dissatisfaction on the face of this man seemingly represents inherent tribal antipathy to the white race, engendered by their aggression and greed.
