In 1969, at age fourteen, Iyall joined the Occupation of Alcatraz, but she stayed for only six days. (The Occupation lasted nineteen months.) She had hoped to connect with the Native American activist community there, but felt out of place.

Iyall started Ink Clan, a print shop dedicated to teaching screen printing and other arts to young Native artists. Ink Clan was once housed in the South of Market Cultural Center in San Francisco.
