Alcatraz Part 2

Send us a textWelcome back for Part 2 of Alcatraz. In this episode of Nightmares of the Americas: Indigenous Tales, we discovered a haunting chapter of history that many have yet to hear.  Join us as we further explore the history of the island of Alcatraz. We jump right in with the Spanish losing control to the newly founded Mexican Government. However, their control didn't last very long.After a few years the Mexican government ceded California to the US Government in the treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo. They used the island for you guessed it another Fort, and later on a military prison. However, right before the end of the 1800s the US was still "dealing with the Indian Problem". They decided to create boarding schools to send "Indian" children too in hopes of destroying the family dynamic.  Many families resisted and it resulted in arrests . 19 Hopi men who defied the oppressive system of Indian boarding school ended up on the island of Alcatraz as prisoners. Lastly, before we leave we go over how the infamous Federal Prison came to be. We also go over the layout of the prison including the "Hole". A place where nightmares come to life, and even the most violent criminals are brought to their knees.  So sit back and enjoy the second part of our Alcatraz series. Nightmares of the americas and the behill network are teaming up with the long hairs.
