Honoring Native rights leader
The Alaska Native Sisterhood and Alaska Native Brotherhood organized a march down Front Street from the WCA carving shed to the Stikine Inn in honor of the late Alaska Natives civil rights leader Elizabeth Peratrovich on Feb. 16. The marchers sang Tlingit songs and played drums. A potluck was held at the carving shed after the parade. Peratrovich’s speech before the territorial Legislature on Feb. 16, 1945, led to passage of the Anti-Discrimination Act.
