![[Museum description] Bradley uses humor, history, and pop culture symbols to highlight sociall and political issues Native peoples face today. Here, he portrays Tonto, the Lone Ranger's Native partner, sleeping in a desert landscape. Buffalo Gals, ghost riders, and the Lone Ranger himself - made famous in song, radio, and film - showcase the West's commercialization.
Bradley's hometown of Santa Fe serves as the backdrop, complete with its casinos, modern-day traffic, and adobe architecture.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:f4uzarl6lkics3wq6furkdwe/bafkreiacr7spv7yb26ddntyyiwckzia2rydr7shyawmo6oprkgnnnw6rei)
