with a update on the struggle to free Leonard Peltier

In 1974, two FBI agents were killed in a gun battle on the Pine Ridge reservation. Leonard Peltier, a leader of the American Indian Movement (AIM) was falsely convicted of the murders, although critical evidence proved his innocence. Peltier’s arrest and trial were politically motivated shams. This exciting documentary reconstructs events surrounding the incident, highlighting the overwhelming FBI repression and atmosphere of government terror on the reservation. It also shows

the viewer the brave efforts of American Indians like Peltier to organize and fight back. Free Leonard Peltier! 1992, 90 min.,
