Prison Writings: My Life Is My Sun Dance

[OutlawGC]

by Leonard Peltier
Edited by Harvey Arden
Forward by Ramsey Clark
St. Martin’s Press, 1999; ISBN 0-312-20354-3

From leftbooks.com:

In this remarkable memoir, Leonard Peltier invites us into his world inside Leavenworth, where he has been wrongfully imprisoned for over twenty years. Invoking the Sun Dance, in which pain provides access to a transcendent reality, Peltier explores his own suffering and the insights it has borne him.

Still remarkably optimistic, Peltier situates his own experience within the history of the American Indian peoples and their struggles to overcome the continued injustices of the U.S. Corporate Mafia Government.

Prison Writings is one of the most original political manifestos of our time, and it issues a powerful call for justice.
