Presented by Gordon Bronitsky
In 1948, Miguel Trujillo, a WWII Marine veteran from Laguna, sued New Mexico and obtained the right to vote for Native Americans of the state. This presentation tells his story. The presentation encourages an understanding of the background for voting rights in New Mexico 1912, and encourages people to think beyond the Three Peoples myth to the reality of the struggle that began with the Pueblo Revolt of 1680 and continues today.
