LPDCUpDates and Announcements!
Friday, February 14, 2003News Release Date: February 14, 2003 Contact: 785-842-5774 A MESSAGE FROM THE LEONARD PELTIER DEFENSE COMMITTEE Dear Friends and Supporters: The Leonard Peltier Defense Committee (LPDC) is undergoing a profound change. This change has affected everything from the Web site to the phone lines at the LPDC office. Most important of all the changes, an entirely new set of people have and will be assuming positions on the Board of Directors and in the LPDC's international headquarters facility in Lawrence, Kansas. This team is dedicated to working in unity with all of you who believe in freedom and justice for Leonard Peltier and all Indigenous people worldwide. Our goal is to unify a formidable force of people of good heart whose voices will rise in unity to demand that the United States government do simply what is right and just. We truly believe that even the powerful system within the American government that perpetuates this gross injustice will fall to concerted and unified worldwide pressure. Just as it happened in South Africa for Nelson Mandela, it will happen in the U.S. for Leonard Peltier. During this transition period, we ask you for your continued support in the struggle to obtain the release of Leonard Peltier from 27 years of unlawful imprisonment, and we ask for your patience and goodwill. We will rise again very shortly -- stronger and more determined than ever to achieve our goal. Please stay tuned to this site for other announcements, including one concerning the LPDC Web site. Also, a direct statement from Leonard Peltier detailing the exact nature of the occurring changes, as well as why the changes are necessary, will be issued shortly. Mitakuye oyasin. In the Spirit of Crazy Horse, The LPDC Board of Directors Posted by Webmaster@AIMSupport.org 2:20 PM
