Commemorating 534 years of Indigenous resistance.
This Indigenous Peoples’ Day, the annual Alcatraz sunrise gathering honors the courage and vision of our leaders who reclaimed Alcatraz as Indian Land.
We honor the Alcatraz veterans, warriors, elders, and families whose courage helped ignite a movement for Indigenous rights, sovereignty, and self-determination.

We gather in recognition of their sacrifices and the generations who continue this work protecting our culture, lands, waters, ceremonies, and inherent Indigenous rights.
We are still here, and we continue to carry the movement forward.

"Alcatraz is more than just a rock to us. It's a stepping stone to a better future." - John Trudell, who broadcast "Radio Free Alcatraz" during the Occupation of Alcatraz in 1969.

Today is 💚. Here is a reflection from Parks Conservancy CEO, Chris Lehnertz, to commemorate this day: "Thursday morning on Alcatraz, the Indigenous Peoples' Thanksgiving Sunrise Ceremony honored the enduring presence and leadership of Indigenous communities.

The power of Alcatraz is in its honesty. It’s more than a landmark, it’s a place where stories of incarceration, resistance, and resilience converge. It’s where, more than five decades ago, the Occupation ignited a national conversation about Indigenous rights and sovereignty. That legacy continues today."
