I am honestly shaking because the news just came through that Leonard is being granted clemency after all this time. It feels like the world shifted on its axis (finally) and I am just sitting here crying at my screen thinking about how we actually managed to push this over …

We, the people of Ireland, call on the United States President, Barack Obama, to have compassion in the case of Leonard Peltier, wrongly convicted and sentenced to two life terms in April 1977 in connection with the deaths of two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Leonard Peltier is 67 years old and is of no threat to anyone. He is in ill health and needs to be at home to spend the remainder of his years with his family. It has been proven through the Freedom of Information Act that evidence was fabricated and people were coerced in order for the government to safely secure a conviction. We call on you to invoke your power as President of the United States of America to grant Executive Clemency to Leonard Peltier.

I have been staring at these files for hours and honestly the inconsistencies in the testimony are just dizzying. It is genuinely wild how many people are reaching out to me with their own research on this case because it really shows we are not the only ones who see the cracks in this conviction.

I was looking at the screen and just realized how far this has traveled since I first hit publish on my laptop late one night. It feels like the message about Leonard is actually cutting through the noise now which is just wild because I honestly doubted people would listen at first. Keep that energy going because it feels like the momentum is finally shifting.

I was just checking the page and we are sitting right on the edge of a hundred signatures which feels like a real step forward even if it is just a small one. If everyone who sees this could grab their phone and send the link to just a few people right now then maybe we can blow past that milestone before I even finish my tea.

After hearing a talk in Belfast about his case I believe in Leonard Peltier's innocence.

His health is failing and he deserves to be home. Hope obama actually does something for once.

The man has been locked up way too long. Let him go home to his family already.
