* Lewisburg *
Join other Peltier supporters at the entrance of USP-Lewisburg on July 27 between 7:00 and 7:30 a.m. for a peaceful protest and vigil.
Meet at the corner of Route 15 and William Penn Road. USP-Lewisburg is located in central Pennsylvania, 200 miles north of Washington,
DC, and 170 miles west of Philadelphia.
Days Inn will give a discount to anyone attending the Peltier vigil. The motel is 1 mile from the prison. The phone number is 570-523-1171.
You perhaps can't make the trip to Lewisburg. What to do?
First, write that letter in support of parole. It's EXTREMELY important that everyone write a letter. You can find sample language and other guidance at http://FreePeltierNow.blogspot...
Also call the White House to express your support for Leonard's freedom: 202-456-1111 or -1112. Do this often.
In solidarity with the protesters in Lewisburg, mount your own peaceful protest and/or vigil at a local federal courthouse.
Our brothers and sisters across the world also can participate. On July 27, gather outside the closest U.S. embassy.
Now is the time. Do something! Make your voices heard.

I know you don't need me rambling on about how Leonard Peltier is a political prisoner, so at least go sign the petition.
