The Occupation of Alcatraz was an occupation of Alcatraz Island by 89 American Indians and supporters, led by Richard Oakes, LaNada Means, and others. They chose the name Indians of All Tribes (IOAT)[1] and John Trudell was the spokesperson. According to the IOAT, under the Treaty of Fort Laramie (1868) between the U.S. and the Lakota, all retired, abandoned or out-of-use federal land was returned to the Native people who once occupied it. Since Alcatraz penitentiary had been closed on March 21, 1963, and the island had been declared surplus federal property in 1964, a number of Red Power activists felt the island qualified for a reclamation.

The Alcatraz Occupation lasted for nineteen months, from November 20, 1969, to June 11, 1971, and was forcibly ended by the U.S. government. The Occupation of Alcatraz had a brief but somewhat direct effect on federal Indian Termination policies, and established a precedent for Indian activism. Oakes was shot to death in 1972, and the American Indian Movement was later targeted by the federal government and the FBI in COINTELPRO operations.

African cultural values are but wishful thinking. Discuss this statement in the context of modernity and the call to return our
Alex787 [66]

Because of colonialism and international influences within African territory, culture has become somewhat diversified, influenced and with distant and modified concepts from the region's ancestral culture. All of this has generated such a strong cultural diversity in the environment that few things are seen and done by the ancestors of the African people. With the passage of time and American influences on the continent, African culture has become increasingly American, which makes us claim that African cultural values ​​are only illusions.

This tends to worsen with the influence of Western countries in Africa, which causes native Africans to increasingly abandon their roots and adopt different and distant values. This is very damaging to a nation, which loses what makes it unique and special.

For this reason, it is important for African families to research and encourage the implementation of ancestral and pure African values, practices and concepts, returning to their roots and keeping their culture alive, influential and admired by themselves, their descendants and the world. Thus making the culture alive through the centuries.
