American Takeover Impending war with Mexico in the 1840s inspired US leaders to arouse the interest of Bay Area settlers adriatic fisheries in joining the Union. In 1846, a party of Yankees in Sonoma declared California s independence from Mexico, christening it the Bear Flag Republic. Shortly after, Commodore John Sloat claimed California as US territory.
In 1969 Richard Oakes and 90 Native Americans adriatic fisheries landed on Alcatraz, set up camp, and demanded the government sell them the island for $24 worth of beads and red cloth. They claimed that this was the price their people had been paid in exchange for an island similar in size nearly 300 years earlier. The government considered forcibly removing the occupiers, but growing public support for the Indians forced officials to renew negotiations. However, in January 1970, while playing on the rooftop of one of the buildings, Oakes youngest daughter adriatic fisheries slipped and fell to her death; distraught, he and his family decided to abandon their claim. Sixty Native Americans remained, but as the stalemate dragged on, the majority slowly adriatic fisheries began to leave only 15 chose to stay. In June 1970, fires ravaged the warden s house, the recreation hall, the officers club, and the lighthouse. Following this devastation, government troops staged a pre-dawn raid. The remaining Indians were arrested and the 19-month Indian occupation came to an end.
