It was Aug 26, 1913 when the American flag was first raised on the Makah Indian Reservation and President Woodrow Wilson addressed the people by transmission of a phonograph. The flag is raised each Makah Days by the descendents of the original Makah flag-raisers. It was June 2, 1924 when American citizenship was granted to all American Indians.
