Topic string

           
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

1)   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.


5)

Yavapai Nation

6)   President Doka emerged as the leader and voice of the Yavapai Nation, the Yavapai Nation had to tell their side of the story before someone else did.
