WASHINGTON DC -- The Longest Walk 4 Return to Alcatraz began with a Sunrise Ceremony in Washington DC on Monday morning, July 15, 2013. Walkers are now on their way to Pennsylvania, enroute to Alcatraz.
Walkers from the Long Walk 2 northern route include Michael Lane, top right, who was on the original walk in 1978, and his wife Sharon Heta, Maori, lower seated second from right. Walking across America for the third time are two Navajo youths, Lisa Peake, seated far left, Anishinabe/Pomo, and seated next is Craig Luther, Navajo, from Sanders, who attended school in Utah. Craig is joined by his father, Navajo Christopher Martin, (in blue and white shirt) seated next to Craig's mother Anita Nalwood, Navajo.
