Alberta Daisy Schenck Adams (June 1, 1928 – July 6, 2009) was a teenage civil rights activist in the struggle for equality by the indigenous peoples in the United States Territory of Alaska. Her 1944 challenge to segregation practices was cited during the Territorial Legislature's proceedings in passage of Alaska's 1945 anti-discrimination law,[1] a decade before the Brown v. Board of Education decision outlawed segregation in public schools,[2] and before Rosa Parks in Alabama sparked a public bus boycott by refusing to give up her seat to a white person.[3]
