NEW YORK -- "'Leonard Peltier should come home and be with his great grandson and teach him songs, and what he has left of his life should be spent at home,' Nathan Phillips, Omaha, Deer Clan, told the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues in New York on Monday, as the second week of the session began.
"'Leonard Peltier stood up for the people,' Phillips said, and asked the UN Permanent Forum to write a letter to Coleman Prison and ask for a compassionate release for Peltier. Phillips said Peltier is sick and 79 years old, and has spent more than 40 years in prison.
"'They really don't know who committed the crime that he's in there for, and now his eyesight is really bad. He might die in there, and that would be death by incarceration,' Phillips said.
"'The FBI admitted that they didn't know who did that, so they should let him go,' he said, adding 'the FBIs didn't have no business up there."

C.IMRadical Anthropology (@RadicalAnthro@c.im)Bad news from #Yanomami protected territories where illegal mining is back on the rise.
Indigenous activist and shaman #DaviKopenawa says: "I am growing angry … and Mother Earth is angry,” with estimates of 4,000 miners operating in a territory where about 30,000 Yanomami and Ye’kwana people live, including groups with little or no contact with outsiders.
"I’m a man of the rainforest, I’m a traditional leader … and I feel these invaders are determined to ruin the Yanomami territory,” added Kopenawa, the president of the Indigenous association Hutukara.
"In our language we call them nape wore’ri pé, the ‘outsider peccary spirits’, because they relentlessly dig into the ground and burrow in the mud like wild pigs looking for earthworms."
"I’m asking Lula to keep fighting, to keep supporting efforts to protect and to save my Yanomami people and the Ye’kwana...."
