A member of the American Indian Movement (AIM) at a time of tumult and political violence in the United States, Aquash took part in several occupations and other political actions but AIM believed their organization had been compromised by FBI informants. And some believed Aquash may have been one of them.
Her body was found in South Dakota in February 1976 and initially it was declared that she died of exposure. An exhumation and subsequent autopsy revealed that she had actually been executed by a bullet to the head. Continued investigations then led to a raft of arrests of AIM members into the 2000s and even 2010.
This complicated and tragic case with several twists and turns is brought to life by Annie Mae's daughter who is on a journey to unravel some of the puzzles remain about her mother's death and place it in the context of the struggle Native and First Nations women face in their own communities even today.
