Natives on Alcatraz (20 nov 1969 – 11 juin 1971)
Description:
Years after the closure of Alcatraz prison, 80 to 100 natives of the Indians of All Tribes (IAT) claimed the island as part of their own land, under the Treaty of Fort Laramie (1868). However, people left due to the government shutting down ways to access the island and water supply. The original leaders of the Red Power Movement decided to leave on June 11, 1971 (Quotes 13).Ajouté au bande de temps:
