You know, civil rights is about more than we might regularly think.

Here is Billy Frank Jr., one of the leaders of the Pacific Northwest "Fish Wars"

"A champion of tribal rights, the salmon, and the environment."

Went to jail more than 50 times for what he believed in.

Thanks Billy, you made the world better than it was, not just for First Nation folks, but for everyone.

I am glad to see him honored.

He stuck to his principles through some pretty tough opposition.
