- Reason
- I'm not quite sure about my crop (those wanting to try their own hand can find the pre-crop restoration at [1] - I restored everything, including parts I was pretty sure I'd crop out.) but the image is highly encyclopædic, and minority women, particularly Native Americans, tend to be under-photographed relative to their importance. It's a very good photo of her at a key point in her political activities (just around the time of her meeting with President Calvin Cooleridge)

- Support Interesting, didn't know her before. Crop looks tolerable to me, given some unfortunate extraneous stuff on the left in the original photo. Brandmeistertalk 19:41, 20 September 2016 (UTC)

- Support as the author of the biography. Truly difficult to find images of minority women and this one is quite striking and relevant. SusunW (talk) 21:55, 22 September 2016 (UTC)

- @Armbrust: Is that the best one? I always saw that as more for people whose EV was primarily in their clothing, so I'm a little hesitant to put someone who's notable in her own right in there. Adam Cuerden (talk) 15:32, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- I didn't though about that. Moved image to Wikipedia:Featured pictures/People/Political. Armbrust The Homunculus 09:35, 2 October 2016 (UTC)
