Synopsis "In 1896, Shaaw TiŠa, a young First Nations woman and her group, discovered gold for the first time in the Klondike. It was a discovery that changed the region and the world forever. But no one remembers name. Newspapers said the gold fields were "NO PLACE FOR WOMEN." But brave and spirited women ignored this advice.
