The Yavapai Tribe of Fort McDowell Governmental duties is assigned with a
President, Vice President,
Secretary, Treasurer, and two Council Members. The members of the Yavapai Tribe vote these
seats in. During the time of the Orme Dam protest President Doka was the one to take the lead on the protest. He was
the first to get people educated about what was really happening rather than
the Tribal people being
so focused on the money part (Wilson). Another person who was in the heat of
the protest was a 12-year-old female
named Kimberly Williams. The goal for using the 12 year old female was to have her talk to
congress about who lived on the Reservation and that their were actual people
living where the Dam
was going to be built. Kimberly
would also bring another dynamic; she would bring a sympathetic and calm voice to congress. Being that she
is a young female girl
she would hopefully be able to bring congress to a reality

I
have found 8 different characters
2)
A) President Doka, B) Orme Dam, C) Yavapai Tribe
, D) Congress
3)
The purpose of this paragraph is to explain the
relationship among the four characters. My goal of the paragraph is to give the
reader an insight of who took the role of the leader of the protest on the
Yavapai Nation’s side.
4)
At the beginning of the Orme Dam protest
President Doka emerged as the leader and the voice of the Yavapai Nation. He
was able to educate the Yavapai Tribe on
how the Orme Dam would effect each and everyone of families within the Nation. The
Yavapai Nation would have to tell their story to congress, if they didn’t someone
else would and it wouldn’t be in the Yavapai Nations favor. President Doka had
to stand up to congress and he had to put a plan together to get congress to
understand how the Orme Dam would effect a whole community.
