In the summer of 2021, the world was captivated by the story of Gabby Petito, a young woman who went missing and was later found murdered in Wyoming. While her story is heartbreaking, the widespread media coverage concerning her case revealed something equally disturbing - the disproportionate attention to cases of missing young, conventionally attractive white women, compared to cases involving missing people of color, particularly those of Indigenous women. In honor of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People Awareness month we bring attention to two Indigenous women whose stories did not receive the same media attention as Gabby’s (and others like her), but are deserved of equal recognition and remembrance.
