 Nordwall and Benayshe-Ba-Equay Titus will share with us the movements that 
 shaped a new generation of Native American activism. Asha is the daughter 
 and Benayshe-Ba-Equay is the grand-daughter of Adam Fortunate Eagle 
 Nordwall, member of the Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians and Native 
 American activist. Her grandfather's story of activism has been passed down 
 through oral history and through his extensive archives. Asha Nordwall also 
 was on Alcatraz during the occupation.\n\nNative Americans arrived in the 
 Bay Area by the thousands with the GI Bill after the Second World War and 
 continuing in the 1950s and 1960s through the government policies known as 
 termination and relocation. The cultural and racial divisions in the city 
 led to widespread discrimination along with loss of Native cultures and 
 identities. Native Americans began to organize and work together to locate 
 themselves on the “urban reservation,” culminating in the takeover of 
 Alcatraz Island on November 20, 1969. \n\nJoin our guests to learn about 
 the movements that shaped a new generation of Native American activism. 
 \n\nEXHIBIT: This event is part of the 2nd Saturday, Cultural Programs of 
 the special exhibition “Red Power on Alcatraz: Perspectives 50 Years 
 Later.” This exhibit will be on Alcatraz for 19 months in commemoration 
 of the All Tribes Occupation on Alcatraz in 1969\n
