Elizabeth Peratrovich a young, unassuming Tlingit Indian mother of three testified before the Alaska State Senate in 1945 and swayed the floor vote with her compelling testimony in favor of the passage of the Anti-Discrimination Bill, the first civil rights bill passed in the United States since the Civil War.
And she is the great aunt of NSCC Security Chief Jeff Caldwell.
