Elise returns to the podcast and we discuss the history and lasting affects of the 1969-1971 Occupation of Alcatraz by Native peoples. We talk about the lasting effects of major organizational movements, the history of oppression against Native and Indigenous peoples, and the ways mutual aid can help all of our communities. We discuss cultural appropriation and exploitative use of Native American imagery, the movement to rename Squaw Valley, and how understanding community organization and the history of liberation movements is critical to community armament.
