Aaron Huey: America's native prisoners of war | Video on TED.com

No other medium tells a story quite as effectively as photography. An image allows the individual to respond emotionally and linger over the contents. A moment in time to absorb its meaning and leave an indelible impression in the mind's eye.

There are no simple answers to such an egregious wrong that has resulted in the suffering of indigenous people. Aaron Huey has provided an uncomfortable study for us to not simply watch, but has asked for a call of action to right a wrong.

Long overdue.
