WALK TO JUSTICE

“We walk not for the hate of our enemies but for the love of our people.”
— Dennis Banks
 
 

In ceremony and prayer, on September 1, 2022, Leonard Peltier's "Walk To Justice" departed from Cedar Field in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and arrived in Washington, D.C. The spiritual walk covered 1,100 miles through Indian Country, stopping in several U.S. cities, holding rallies, and gathering support.

On November 13, 2022, the American Indian Movement, NDN Collective, Native Children's Survival, dignitaries, celebrities, elders, and youth gathered at the Lincoln Memorial to advocate for Peltier's release. The former United States Attorney, James Reynolds, who prosecuted Mr. Peltier, spoke to the crowd about his letter to President Joe Biden requesting clemency. 

“I have realized that the prosecution and continued incarceration of Mr. Peltier was and is unjust. We are not able to prove that Mr. Peltier personally committed any offense on the Pine Ridge Reservation.”
— James Reynolds, Former United States Attorney
