It's been 31 years since Leonard Peltier was extradited to the U.S., but he hasn't been forgotten. Seattle Indy Media reports that on Feb. 10, supporters from around the Pacific Northwest joined together for a march, demanding freedom for a man regarded by many as the U.S.'s longest-serving political prisoner. Peltier's conviction was based on what is widely accepted to be fraudulent testimony concerning the 1975 murder of two FBI agents. "The purpose of political repression is to stop the struggle. And if we stop struggling, if we stop our culture, our ways, our education to our young, then they win," said Arthur J. Miller of the Tacoma Leonard Peltier Support Group.
