On December 10th, a South Dakota jury wrongfully convicted native land
defender John Graham of the 1975/76 murder of his friend and comrade
in the American Indian Movement, Anna Mae Aquash. John Graham was
found guilty based on insubstantiative testimony, without a shred of
physical evidence, and now faces life imprisonment.

We Shall Remain: Wounded Knee 1973
50 minutes / directed by Stanley Nelson / released in 2009
A documentary that chronicles the 1973 armed occupation of Wounded
Knee on the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota, conveying the
atmosphere of violent repression during this period known as the
“Reign of Terror”, as well as the spirit of the resistance movement
that brought Aquash and Graham to Pine Ridge.
* John Graham case update with pictures, Q & A.
* A brief slideshow about present-day indigenous resistance to mining
and land theft in the US and Canada.
* Donations will be collected for John’s commissary.
* Supplies will be available to draft letters & cards for John.

Please join us to honor this living history of resistance to the
colonial occupation of indigenous lands, and to discuss what relevant
lessons we can draw from this history.
