Free Leonard Peltier: Obama Urged to Grant Clemency to Native American Activist
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 сен 2024
- democracynow.org - As President Obama’s last month in office begins, Amnesty International and other groups are calling on the president to grant clemency to Native American activist Leonard Peltier, who has been imprisoned for 40 years. The former member of the American Indian Movement was convicted of killing two FBI agents during a shootout on South Dakota’s Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in 1975. Leonard Peltier has long maintained his innocence. The shootout occurred two years after the American Indian Movement occupied the village of Wounded Knee for 71 days. The occupation of Wounded Knee is considered the beginning of what Oglala people refer to as the "Reign of Terror." We speak to Peltier’s attorney, Martin Garbus, and Norman Patrick Brown, a longtime friend of Leonard Peltier’s. He survived the 1975 Pine Ridge shootout.

Sue all the FBI agent.

Norman Brown was only 15 when the shootout happened. Hearing how he was intimidated and manipulated by the FBI is scrary.
Amy G. , thanks. You ROCK.
Free Leonard!
FREE FREE LEONARD PELTIER now!
FREE LEONARD!
If there were discrepancies, at the very least he should be given another trial.
Trish St.Clair homeboy appeal, i believe the dueche bag judge who convicted peltier mentioned something about if the ballistics evidence would of produced “probability” instead of “possibility” he would of
Appealed*
It doesn't even require another trial. Let him die free. In peace with family on a straight path towards infinity. He already paid his dues
Let Leonard go..
Why can you see .
When everyone is shooting.
That is totally lie about our elder Leonard Peltier m
Obama has been released our elder Leonard Peltier long time ago.
There no life sentence
Sohn matina hasgood clemency.
An FBI cover up that goes way beyond even Leanard, that is why they are so afraid of releasing him. Their own actions tell it all. PLEASE ACT! If he has to die in Prison it will be one of our worst tragedies. However, he will remain a hero, a martyr and a legacy that will not be forgotten.
someone has to pay = the fall guy.
He was no fall guy. To all you dupes, find out his connection to the execution-style murder of fellow AIM member, the Canadian Mi'kmaq woman from Nova Scotia, Anna Mae Acquash. Reading about his connection to her murder makes me mad that any of you would actually believe he was innocent.
Set Leonard Peltier free now please
Yes Indeed my Sister in Struggle
Ich bedauere es sehr, daß ich das perfekt and fast english not can understand. I stand by my Brothers and Sister's Family's and Friend's.

Honour and Respekt for you all. Gemeinsam sind wir stark und erreichen was wir wollen. Gary kicking Wolf 🐺🐾🐾

11:27 …..don’t interrupt this man, he was there he seen and lived what happened that day. No,….she wants to the interview with the president…..let this man speak!
Wow I hope Obama steps up. I just recently watched a documentary about the case I'm late to the game
Lisa Houserman The Robert Redford one from 92? That was a good documentary.
@@lukelee7967 it was full of lies. So was the book it was based on. After liberal lawyer Alan Dershowitz read it, he complained how many lies were in it. It was as full of lies as the movie Boys Don't Cry.
Why
u made yr point set him free let come home to die proud way.
Leonard wasn't Black thus not his concern and not worth pardoning.
I can write to the president all I want....but the letter gets intercepted in the mail service....same as telephone calls....voice recongnition....
FREE LEONARD P !!!!
Free Leonard....let our country and culture and earth grow naturally.....
SHAME on Barack for not freeing Leonard...the fact that he didnt considering his professional and personal background... is the most despicable compromise he made...its the one inaction that actually has me ashamed of him
The fact my Sister Obama has not done nothing for the people, many Political Prisoners are locked up for crimes the Government has put on them stemming back since the Civil Rights era, it's still Black Panthers, Black Liberation Army Members, locked up for fighting oppression that the Powers that be has put on the people, I'm speaking for So called Blks,Hispanics and Native Americans
We must raise our voices and actions a little higher, tell friends ,family members get involved too free all the Political Prisoners
man let my native brother speak this is why so many natives aren’t heard because the white man cant Comprehend the truths
8. Who are the Native Americans?
Answer: ‘Native American’ is another contemporary sociology term or disassociation conquest-tag - an invented construct of European conquerors. It, like many other
misnomers and tags, is not a national identity of the Aboriginals, but is a political
status-class designation, designed to expand upon social and political divisions, displacement, and confusion amongst the Aboriginal Moors of the Americas.
Stop adding the lie words.
JUSTICE FOR ANNIE MAE PICTOU AND RAYMOND ROBINSON.
PELTIER IS NO HERO.
Noone said Peltier was a Hero. What they said was Peltier did not do the Crime so why is he doing any time ? Thats the Point. Thank you very much for allowing me to fact check you.
are you mental You just as bad as the fbI
He is a Hero too me, to fight soo hard for his people and his Freedom, I'm one voice and one opinion who believes he is innocent
Habe gerade einen Bericht in German Languages gelesen und werde alle Hebel in Bewegung setzen um Leonard Peltier zu helfen.
Man muss die Hintergründe wissen und erst einmal richtig vor Augen haben. Das bin ich mentan gerade am recherchieren und werde mich danach an die angegebene Adresse; zusammen mit Amnestie International ; von President Obama wenden. Ich hoffe innigst das dies einen positiven Erfolg bringt.
Gary kicking Wolf 🐺🐾🐾
Obama is no fool he wont free Leonard noooo
We need Nation wide Marches for all our Political Prisoners, its important
Upgrade to 720p at least please.
hes guilty as hell and in prison where he belongs.6 presidents,3 republican,3 democrat,did not pardon him.
Robert Mowreader prove it
Of course all the racist bastards want too say that! I fear none of them, Feds can do any of us the same way, But The Most High will have his day with many of the Devils who causes atrocities against Gods people! What was the Feds doing on the Indigenous land anyway
@@kevinstephens4377 the agents were trying to find Jimmy Eagle who was supposedly in a fight then took off with someone else's boots. They didn't know Peltier was on the Pine Ridge Reservation, and he didn't know they were there trying to find someone else. In the end, all that matters is he killed two FBI agents, and was convicted for it
I was in Disgust , watching how many So called Blacks and so called Latinos eating all that to be gluttens over the Genocide of a Special People ,The such day of Thanksgiving makes me sick, I won't ever participate in a filthy feast, I'm stand behind Me.Peltier as Well as The Larry Hoover,Assata Shakur, Mumia Abu Jamal, Jamil Al Amin, And Jeff Fort we the people want our people Free, So to the Government Free all Political Prisoners, It's Sad you put in President s who are not truly with the People, Knowledge of Self you frown on,and And that's why the Most High Frowns on you.
He can't prove it
UPDATE: Obama did not pardon Leonard peltier, instead he released some of the worst drug pushers (more than the last eleven presidents combined) back into society. Thanks Democrats.
