Credit: Village of Wrangell, ca. 1897, one of the five "landless" communities in Southeast Alaska whose Native residents were excluded from full participation in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. Ironically, Wrangell was the hometown of William Paul, Sr., the pioneering Tlingit civil rights leader who is considered one of the fathers of the Native land claims movement.
