The program was known as relocation and was induced at least 30 thousand Indians to move in the 1950’s and three times the number in the 1960s and 1970s.

There were offices established in a variety of cities like  Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Jose, and St. Louis by the bureau of labor statistics. The program promised to provide a variety of services in order to transition to city life. The services included,  transportation from the reservation, financial assistance, help in finding housing and employment. The distribution and quality of these services were often uneven. An estimate of 750,000 Indians relocated to cities, not all of them did so under the official program and not all of them remained in urban areas permanently. It is clear that urban relocation helped encourage the pan-Indian identity and activism that arose in the latter half of the 20th century.

They were taught machinery or metalwork; whatever it was, they were taught a skill. That group is in the hundreds of thousands and they were in these relocation programs throughout America, where they were disconnected from their tribes.

This policy backfired and instead of assimilating, Natives in urban spaces joined forces in 1968 to create the American Indian Movement which sought to protect tribal lands, stop police brutality and hold the U.S. government accountable to treaty agreements with tribal nations.

They decided to take over the abandoned island of Alcatraz, to uncover the horrible treatment Native Americans faced. The occupation lasted 19 months and from a political standpoint forced the president at that time, Richard Nixon to revoke previous devastating federal programs known as “ Termination and Relocation”. Specifically, The Relocation Act of 1956. Even though the occupation didn’t last long, it started a movement known as the “ Red Power Protests” that lasted around nine years and helped bring national awareness to the treatment of Native Americans.

Over 25% of Native American women were sterilized under pressure and in some cases without them even knowing. This lets you know how what the women at that time had to go through. To this day, Native American women are ten times more likely to be murdered than the rest of the population and face violence in both reservations and cities.

Kent Blansett from The Washington Post “ How Alcatraz Became A Powerful Monument For The Indigenous peoples, “ The Alcatraz occupation fueled a new political awakening popularly known as “Red Power.” This pivotal demonstration led to the passage of more than 26 pieces of self-determination legislation and Supreme Court decisions that enhanced the sovereign powers of native nations.” ]]> 2021-10-26 03:56:50 UTC https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843825657 javijgjg269 https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843828783 Another Key takeaway I found important comes from the source I used when finding out how Native American women were treated during that time, specifically the Act which led to a big percentage of them being sterilized. Brianna Theobald from Time Magazine “ A 1970 Law Led to the Mass Sterilization of Native American Women. That History Still Matters, “ Over the six-year period that had followed the passage of the Family Planning Services and Population Research Act of 1970, physicians sterilized perhaps 25% of Native American women of childbearing age, and there is evidence suggesting that the numbers were actually even higher. Some of these procedures were performed under pressure or duress, or without the women’s knowledge or understanding. The law subsidized sterilizations for patients who received their health care through the Indian Health Service and for Medicaid patients, and black and Latina women were also targets of coercive sterilization in these years”. This information helps us better understand the historical event and the hardship women faced late 60’s and 70’s. ]]> 2021-10-26 03:58:24 UTC https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843828783 m0512812 https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843944717 In this article occupation of Alcatraz was successfully started with a group of 89 college students and goes on about other things like the importance about the art that was left behind. ]]> 2021-10-26 05:00:58 UTC https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843944717 m0512812 https://padlet.com/p0514542/4hkq4zr7l9t9fiku/wish/1843989367 For the article that I picked.

It also give us multiple time when Native american occupied Alcatraz. But it also tells us how the failure of capturing Alcatraz paved way for Native american to start political movements.
