Indian America > The Occupation of Alcatraz: 1969•1971 > Atha Whitemankiller at the Depot
Atha Rider Whitemankiller at the Alcatraz Receiving Depot after the removal of the Indian Occupiers from Alcatraz.
Whitemankiller was a courageous and eloquent speaker to the press that day. His face reflects the disappointment felt by those who occupied the island for nineteen months but lost the final battle.
