Zoom In: Focus on Executive Review
by Friends of Leonard Peltier
A new campaign sponsored by the Leonard Peltier
Defense Offense Committee (LP-DOC) with Friends of
Peltier and the International Peltier Forum
The United States courts have acknowledged that Leonard
Peltier was the victim of official misconduct and convicted
on the basis of fabricated and suppressed evidence, as
well as coerced testimony. However, the courts have not
granted Leonard a new trial.
Attorney General Eric Holder can conduct an Executive
Review of the Peltier case and provide a remedy. In fact, he
has said that in the face of misconduct by Department of
Justice officials, it's his job to do the right thing. That's why
we've renewed the call for an Executive Review of the
Peltier case.
Join us in our new campaign to demand equal justice for
Leonard Peltier.
The Campaign
People often ask... "Who are those Peltier supporters,
anyway?" We're all just ordinary folks from all around the
world. We're a diverse group, representative of all
.races/ethnicities, religions, social classes, political
beliefs, etc. Yet, we have at least one thing in common. We
know a grave injustice has been done to Leonard Peltier

The campaign concept is simple: (1) Send a message to AG Holder--We want justice... equal justice... and we want it NOW
and (2) Put a face to the message.
The campaign has two components:
Action #1: Personal Response--Where you'll provide a photographic image of yourself holding a campaign sign, as well as
your name, address and e-mail address.
Action #2: Community Response--Where you'll go out into your community and get others to participate in the campaign.
A box filled to the brim with campaign flyers, including all our faces, will be delivered to AG Holder's office on or around
February 6, 2010 - the 34th anniversary of Leonard Peltier's arrest.
For details and instructions, see http://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info/.
We also ask that you contribute $1 to help us with expenses associated with the campaign. That's right--ONE U.S. dollar!
You can, of course, donate more if you wish. Checks and money orders should be made out to "LPDOC". If you prefer, you
may donate online at http://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info/.
Contrary to what some say, the Committee has limited resources and, like any other grassroots organization, struggles
financially. Your dollars are needed to make this and other campaigns successful and so that more events--like those held
in Boulder, Lewisburg, and Washington, DC, this year--can be planned and successfully implemented in the months ahead.
Please give what you can.
Deadline
All photos should be received NO LATER THAN JANUARY 31, 2010 (but please don't wait until then to send us your photo).
Again, for instructions, see www.whoisleonardpeltier.info. Download the campaign kit and review all of the materials
provided. The campaign e-mail address is zoom@whoisleonardpeltier.info. Don't hesitate to ask questions or request
assistance.
Note to our local support group coordinators: Please let us know you're on board with this new campaign by sending an
e-mail to zoom@whoisleonardpeltier.info. We'll work closely with you to help you succeed. To assist us with the planning of
branch-specific special communications (which may be state, regional or international in scope) please provide your name
and location in the body of your e-mail.
Thanks to all of you for the work you do. With your help, Leonard WILL see freedom soon.
