Cordelia Flat Open Edition

This print is about my first visit to Cordelia Flat in Beatty Oregon. It is named after my great grandmother Cordelia George. My family lived here until the Klamath Termination Act in 1954, a measure authorizing the sale of reservation lands and establishing procedures for terminating the federal government's relationship with Klamath Tribes. The Klamath Restoration Act was adopted into law in 1986, reestablishing the Klamath as a sovereign state. My grandmother grew up playing in this field and would tell me stories about this place.
