Some forty life-sized buffalo puppets – brought to life by around 170 volunteers – stampeded, roamed, meandered, and grazed through the streets of Manhattan on Friday. The art project, “Return of the Buffalo: Tatanka Owe Akupi,” draws on the history of the American bison, whose mass slaughter in the 19th century was closely tied to efforts to displace and devastate Indigenous communities.
