Theresa Harlan has a vision. As the adopted daughter of a Coast Miwok family who lived for generations at the cove on Tomales Bay known as Laird’s Landing, she has a personal stake in the Point Reyes National Seashore. Her family, the Felixes, were the last Coast Miwoks to leave the west shore of the bay. Now, she is fighting for the park to recognize its modern Indigenous history, a story she says has often been ignored.
