Political Prisoner Leonard Peltier is Innocent

On April 18, 1977 Leonard Peltier was convicted for alleged involvement in the killing two FBI officers, Jack R. Coler and Ronald A. Williams, at Pine Ridge, South Dakota. These men died in 1975 during a shoot-out between the FBI and Native American activists. Previous to this time, Leonard Peltier, and others in AIM (American Indian Movement) were challenging tribal “leaders” who hired vigilantes to murder activists. More than 5 dozen traditionalists and AIM members had already been murdered by these vigilantes. The FBI was brought in to the region due to the conflict. The FBI sided with the leaders against AIM and the traditionalists — despite the leaders’ role in these murders. <a href="https://medium.com/@lindsayw739/political-prisoner-leonard-peltier-is-innocent-759454aef4a">Read More</a>
