Today, we proudly observe Elizabeth Peratrovich Day and honor the enduring legacy of a Tlingit leader whose courage changed Alaska’s history.

On February 16, 1945, Elizabeth Peratrovich stood before the Alaska Territorial Legislature and delivered powerful testimony that led to the passage of the Alaska Anti-Discrimination Act — the first law of its kind in the United States. Her advocacy affirmed the dignity, rights, and humanity of Alaska Native peoples.

Her words continue to remind us that civil rights are not given — they are fought for, defended, and upheld by strong voices and committed communities.

As the Anchorage Tribes Tlingit & Haida Indians of Alaska, we recognize Elizabeth Peratrovich’s leadership as a reflection of our values: equity, justice, and responsibility to future generations.

Today, we honor her bravery.
We teach her story.
We carry her legacy forward.
