The 1491s are a collective of American Indian writers, filmmakers, visual and traditional artists, and advocates of language, culture and community. Founded in 2009, the group's distinctly indigenous brand of satire has drawn a sizable following. Capitalizing on the use of social media to disseminate their content worldwide, the 1491s have built a Facebook fan base of over 22,000 and their YouTube channel boasts nearly three million views.

 

The 1491's are the keynote presentors of  the 21st annual Social Justice Summitt at HSU, March 6th and 7th.
