"For the Rights of All: Ending Jim Crow in Alaska" Screening & Discussion
February 16, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm AKST
Celebrate #ElizabethPeratrovichDay with The Alaska Center!
Join us on Elizabeth Peratrovich Day, February 16, from 1pm-2:30pm for a screening of “For the Rights of All: Ending Jim Crow in Alaska” followed by small group discussions.
Alaska Native Peoples have faced countless obstacles in the fight for equal access to decision-making in our state. Elizabeth Peratrovich, an Alaska Native Sisterhood Grand President, fought at the forefront. Organizing innumerable community members, she paved the way to ensure Indigenous peoples today are able to access housing, education, careers, and even citizenship rights. We keep up her fight and on Elizabeth Peratrovich Day we honor her with a virtual community event.
Join us to see how she advocated for all Alaskans, and together let’s talk about how we can keep her legacy alive in our work moving forward!
