Freedom fighters across Turtle Island already know that today is the day of Leonard Peltier’s parole hearing.  Leonard is now 79 years old. This is likely his last opportunity to be considered for parole. A decision is expected by mid-July. Today, millions across Mother Earth are collectively asking the US Parole Commission to recognize that enough is enough and finally grant Leonard Peltier his freedom.
