From the mainland, Fortunate Eagle orchestrated the events, but they assumed an uncontrollable life of their own.

Money poured in from around the country. Sausalito sailors and their ""navy"" transported supplies and people to the island. San Fransisco restaurants sent Thanksgiving dinner. A school was started; chores and responsibilities were shared by everyone. Alcatraz became home, and American Indians of all tribes became a family.But the occupation lasted two years, and Oakes, who had become it spokesman, left after his stepdaughter's death on the island. Memoranda from the White House recommended doing ""anything"" to turn the public against the occupation so it could be ended.
