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.

Which was the same in all Greek city-states? 1. The alphabet 2. Military training 3. Philosophy 4. Music
postnew [5]

The correct answer is 1. The Greek alphabet was used in all the Greek city-states.

The Greek city-states used this common alphabet, derived from the Phoenician alphabet, as a point of cultural and linguistic connection between all of them.

The other aspects were not common among all of them. For example, Sparta had a military training and culture totally different from that of Athens. Each city had its own philosophers, who developed very different thoughts. And music, like all cultural expressions, was typical of each region.
