“At some point the healing process must begin…. Favorable action by the President in the Leonard Peltier case would be an important step in this regard.” Judge Gerald W. Heaney (Apr. 18, 1991). @POTUS @FLOTUS @WHCOS @JohnWMcCarthy @MooreWright05 @PeltierHQ @WashArchbishop

A new form of intimidation targets federal judges: hundreds of unsolicited pizzas sent to judges and their children across the country. It’s an innocuous delivery with an ominous message: “We know where you live.” cbsn.ws/40HpZRq

As Joe Biden’s presidency enters its final days, NCAI urgently reiterates its decades-long call for immediate executive clemency for Leonard Peltier. His conviction is marred by documented government misconduct, including fraudulent extradition, false testimony... (1/7)

Leonard Peltier. Our Native American political prisoner. Still in jail after 47 years with every bit of evidence that convicted him being proven to be false. The most profound ongoing embarrassment of our justice system.
Watching the Hepworth BBC interview with Bruce again. 1987. I've watched this every year since it was first on TV. Some awesome jumpers, lampshades in this. Good tour footage too. @StevieVanZandt looks so fucking cool. Still can't tell who's on the t shirt though.

NEW: More Democrats and now a Republican (!) in Congress today called on President Biden to grant clemency to Leonard Peltier, the ailing 79-year-old Native American rights activist who has been in prison for nearly 50 years. huffpost.com/entry/leonard-p…

Thanks to @KevinHSharp and Chris Young for sharing inspiring words that remind us why this moment requires courageous leaders committed to addressing excessive sentencing & coercive plea bargaining, and ending the abuses of mass incarceration.

Biden has the authority to release Peltier at any time. Indigenous rights leaders made it clear Tuesday that they want him to do it now, before it’s too late and Peltier dies. cc @ndncollective huffpost.com/entry/leonard-p…

Remember Leonard Peltier? The Indigenous rights activist who the U.S. govt put in prison ~50 yrs ago after a trial full of misconduct, lies and racism? He turns 79 on Sept. 12. Amnesty Intl other groups will be outside the White House urging Biden to finally release him.

They not only helped defeat an enemy on the battlefield, during World War II, but protected a sacred language and culture. We will never forget their contributions and sacrifice. We owe an incredible debt of gratitude to these heroes on National Navajo Code Talkers Day.

RIP Robbie Robertson. A good friend and a genius. The Band’s music shocked the excess out of the Renaissance and were an essential part of the final back-to-the-roots trend of ‘60s. He was an underrated brilliant guitar player adding greatly to Bob Dylan’s best tour & best album.
