About Us

The LPDOC

The Leonard Peltier Defense Offense Committee (LPDOC) is the hub of communication between Leonard Peltier and his program coordinators, the general public, government officials, political and tribal leaders, the media, and his supporters worldwide.

E-mail: contact@whoisleonardpeltier.info

We are in daily contact with Leonard who is currently imprisoned at USP-Coleman, Florida. 

What We Do

Our volunteers plan and coordinate an ongoing international freedom campaign to win Leonard's release. Our activities include outreach and networking; local, as well as national and international organizing; public education; media relations; and political lobbying.

We work closely with Leonard's attorneys who, with Leonard, decide on the legal actions to be taken to win his freedom. 

The LPDOC also works in solidarity with other political prisoner organizations and those seeking environmental and social justice, advocates for Indigenous and human rights, and the movement for prison reform.

More Information

 

 

Much of the information contained on this site is from In the Spirit of Crazy Horse by Peter Matthiessen, the definitive work on the American Indian Movement (AIM) and the Peltier case. The author successfully defended against lawsuits brought by former Governor and Congressman William Janklow from South Dakota (convicted of manslaughter in 2003, jailed, and forced to resign his congressional seat in disgrace) and FBI Special Agent David Price in three different states, surviving an eight-year litigation. As acknowledged by the courts, Matthiessen's reputation for not being sensationalistic or scandalous is well known. He is a highly respected author and his works have received wide acclaim.
