Alcatraz Island played a significant role in the modern Native American civil rights movement. The artwork in this collection is based on political statements from Alcatraz's Indians of All Tribes Occupation (1969-1971), painted by activists in various locations across the island. Today, many of the statements are still visible to Alcatraz visitors, and remain enduring symbols of Native self-determination, power, and pride.
