http://chicanokidb.cabbycentral.com/ Native American Issues Truth In Politics en http://chicanokidb.cabbycentral.com/2008/12/04/free-leonard-peltier.html The last month has been a busy one at the LPDOC office. We’ve reached tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people in North Dakota as well as the surrounding area with the simple but firm message that Leonard Peltier must be free. In the last month we have received coverage from every major media outlet in Fargo as well as Grand Forks, held a major rally at the site of Leonard’s conviction, organized a display of his art at a downtown gallery, as well as jog a full-page ad as well as cover article in a popular weekly newspaper. Those of you who could not manufacture it can watch part of Russell Means’ speech on You Tube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zUl5fifMUf8 Although we have accomplished much in terms of education, we have also incurred substantial expenses along the way. Your financial assistance is needed more than ever to help us transfer forward into the new year with a new website and newsletter (yes, it’s ultimately coming).
