Pin - Welcome to Indian Land, Alcatraz Island

Celebrate Indigenous history with this Welcome to Indian Land, Alcatraz Island button pin. Official merchandise from National Park Service exhibit on Alcatraz Island: "Welcome to Indian Land." Behind the Artwork Alcatraz Island played a significant role in the modern Native American civil rights movement. The artwork in this collection is based on political statements from Alcatraz's Indians of All Tribes Occupation (1969-1971), painted by activists in various locations across the island. Today, many of the statements are still visible to Alcatraz visitors, and remain enduring symbols of Native self-determination, power, and pride. Supporting Indigenous Businesses This collection was proudly produced in collaboration with Urban Native Era, an Indigenous-owned business from San Francisco, and UrbanRezLife, artist, activist, and original Alcatraz occupier.
