Description

This one-page typed document is a proclamation from the Navajo Nation declaring that September 4-10, 1988, will be known as "American Indian Movement Self-Determination Week." It discusses how, before 1968 and the establishment of the American Indian Movement, matters regarding Indian education, housing, health, civil rights, and treaty rights were ignored. It lists various programs developed to aid Indian self-determination and mentions the twentieth-anniversary gathering to be held in Minneapolis. The proclamation is signed by Peter MacDonald Sr., Chairman of the Navajo Tribal Council.
