Leonard Peltier calls for unity, vigilance

Leonard Peltier calls on Native Americans to come together in the ongoing fight for many of the same issues he championed in the early days of the American Indian Movement.

After President Joe Biden commuted his life sentence in the deaths of two FBI agents, Peltier emerged from nearly a half century in federal prison to a hero’s welcome by his supporters and dismay by federal law enforcement officials and other detractors. In many respects, he picks up where he left off, speaking up for equitable treatment for Native people and defiance against a system he says is stacked against them.

Tune into Native America Calling to hear from Peltier about his life now beyond a prison cell and also discuss the coordinated effort that finally secured his release.

Note: This show is pre-recorded so Native America Calling won’t be able to take calls live on the air.
