WILL WE MARCH IN THE COLD WEATHER? Imagine, if you would for a minute, l living in a room the size of your bathroom. Imagine spending most of your life over the last three decades enclosed in such a place: three walls and bars. Imagine the feeling of constant confinement, walls closing in on you, and the continuous battle to suppress all thought about it. Imagine being there not because you are a criminal, a threat to society, but because you devoted your life to the well-being of your people. Imagine having to be cautious of every move you make, for eyes are forever on you, waiting for you to slip. Imagine knowing that your keepers wish you dead and have , in the past, tried to assassinate you. Imagine living this life, imprisoned by a frame-up, a massive conspiracy, by the government of the United States of America. Imagine the life of Leonard Peltier. & nbsp;We have been asked if we will still march in the cold weather? I wrote the words above back in 1985 and in my view, it is all that we need to say when asked if we will march when it is hard to do so. We all struggle for a better world but Leonard has continued to do so while behind iron bards. Not only, in my view, do we need to be out there in the streets to support freedom for Leonard, but also as a means to support the continuing struggles of Leonard. Or as the Wobblies use to say, he is in there for US and we need to be out here for him. See you at the march in Tacoma! Thank you Arthur J.
