"You said that you wanted to put us on a reservation, to build us
houses and make us medicine lodges. I was born where there were no
enclosures and everything drew a free breath. I want to die there
and not within walls." -- Ten Bears

* Prints Available *

How about giving a Peltier print to that someone special on your
Christmas list? New prints of several of Leonard's paintings are
available: "Visions of Freedom," "White Mountain Lady," and "Woman
Coming Out of the Water." They really are special and look fantastic
framed. Each print sells for $35.00 (USD) plus S&H. Check out the
Merchandise Page at <http://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info>.


* Subscriptions and Tools *

We've recently re-engineered our Web site at
<http://www.FreePeltierNow.org>. The item of most interest
to many will be the box on our home page which allows you to
easily communicate with the White House, Members of Congress,
federal agencies (the Department of Justice, in particular), state
officials, and the media.  You can search by zip code or state to
identify your federal and state representatives, as well as local
media. In addition to a Web form for composing an e-mail, you'll
have access to other tools to make your e-mail communications more
effective. We know you'll find this tool useful.

In addition to subscribing to our listserv, you may want to
subscribe to receive postings made to our main blog. With an e-mail
subscription, the daily updates to our news blog can be delivered
right to your inbox.
