Dear Editor,

In reading a new book “Days of Destruction Days of Revolt” by Chris Hedges and Joe Sacco, I found references to the killings at Pine Ridge (“Leonard Peltier supporters rally for clemency,” TW 12-21). Three American Indian Movement members were indicted for the deaths of the two Federal Bureau of Investigations agents. Two were acquitted. The third, Leonard Peltier, was convicted “despite irregularities and inconsistencies in the federal case against him.” This remark is referenced to a book “In The Spirit of Crazy Horse” by Peter Matthiessen. These books are available at Tacoma Public Library.
