Leonard Peltier's Statement For February 6, 1998 "Lets continue working in the direction that we're going. I can't receive any justice in the courts so the only thing we have to deal with is the political, we can only go back into the political arena. We can win by building a powerful block of people who are willing to organize for the rights of indigenous people. We must demand that the government quit obstructing justice and start obeying their own laws. There are still current Indian issues that haven't been resolved. Just because a few casinos exist most Indians are still poor. This struggle continues and people need to become more active. " The Leonard Peltier Defense Committee would also like to welcome back Bobby Castillo. He will resume his work as one of Leonard's International Spokespersons at the February 6, 1998 rally in San Francisco. Its a great pleasure to have Bobby back on the team. We also want to announce the Leonard Peltier Food Drive for the People of Chiapas. Thousands of people are near starvation in Chiapas. Leonard thought we should start a food drive. We hope you will join Leonard in supporting this effort. Leonard would also like to encourage you to attend Jericho 98 in Washington DC March 27, 1998 and the Rally to Free Leonard Peltier on June 27, 1998 outside the White House. Leonard did not have a hearing in February and hopes to go before the board in May. Leonard also asked us to make a request for donations. His Defense Committe is about to lose its office and phone. He needs $750 by next Friday or the phone will be cut off. He also just found out that the lease on his office ends March 1, 1998. He has less then $300 in his account. Its important that everyone send as much as they can to the address below.
