William Bauer (History) published an essay entitled "Reclaiming Alcatraz: The Legacies and Continuities of the American Indian Occupation of Alcatraz Island, 1971-2021" in Fall issue of California History. The summer of 2021 marked the 50th anniversary of the end of the American Indian occupation of Alcatraz Island. Bauer explores the legacies of the Alcatraz occupation in light of the protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline, the emerging #Landback movement and the carceral state.
