Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier on adjusting to life at home after decades in prison
To many supporters, Leonard Peltier was a political prisoner unjustly punished for his activism with the American Indian Movement. To his critics, he is a remorseless killer of two FBI agents in 1975, a charge he denies. President Biden commuted Peltier’s sentence, restricting him to home confinement. Fred de Sam Lazaro spoke with Peltier on the Turtle Mountain Indian Reservation in North Dakota. Watch PBS News for daily, breaking and live news, plus special coverage.
