Billy Frank Jr. was an early participant in the fight for tribal
fishing rights during the 1960s. Roughed up, belittled, and
arrested many times at Frank's Landing on the Nisqually River, he
emerged as one of the most influential Northwest Indians in modern
history. His efforts helped lead to U.S. v. Washington in 1974, in
which U.S. District Judge George H. Boldt affirmed Northwest tribal
fishing rights and allocated half the harvestable catch to the
tribes.
Trova Heffernan is director of the Legacy Project and the

Office of the Secretary of State.
"I hope this book finds a place in every classroom and library
in Washington State. The conflicts over Indian treaty rights
produced a true warrior/statesman in the person of Billy Frank Jr.,
who endured personal tragedies and setbacks that would have
destroyed most of us." --Tom Keefe, former legislative director for
Senator Warren Magnuson
Why aren't suck-ups seen for what they really are? Why do
organizations reward the most vocal or most visible even if they
aren't the most qualified? These are critically important
questions. Beyond bruised egos and a free-floating sense of
unfairness lies a larger organizational problem: when the wrong
people get noticed and rewarded, organizations suffer. Projects
fail, goals are not met, employee morale and motivation
disintegrate, and cynicism festers. This book can help you prevent
those drastic outcomes by making authentic self-promotion part of
your everyday work life.
