Land of the Red Giants of Ixtlan LAND OF THE RED GIANTS OF IXTLAN Chapter 19 - Anna Mae & Leonard: "In video-theatre 'FREE PELTIER'" The funniest thing I ever saw was a little old lady laughing so hard at my play that she fell off her folding chair and was actually rolling around on the floor choking. The situation was nearly tragic, about like the play, as her sons or granddaughters frantically pounded her on the back to get her breathing again, while we on stage had to stop our own crazy antics for a minute to watch the performance in the audience. Reality blurred until I never did know when we were doing the play and when I was living it out on the streets, or in the Oyate Community Center in the Lakota Homes ghetto where we had set up our improvised excuse for theatre. Just when they had gotten the old Lakota Gramma back to some form of normalcy and back in her chair, Jay Hart, a handsome Mohawk woman who was playing Custer in a grotesque mask with long blonde hair, stepped across the borders between art and gender and snuck around behind the Gramma and whispered, "Are you dead yet, Ciye?" Upon which the poor old lady really lost it and screamed and fell off her chair again! Chaos erupted, as all of us poured off the commedia dell'arte platform and chased the evil whiteman around the room and out into the street. Kids and dogs chased after us and we just kept going with it, running around the parking lot as the audience ran after us, and passing cars stopped to gape in wonder at the surreal scene of clowns and devils in fantastic costumes screaming, falling down, throwing confetti-bullets like Jerry Lewis or Harpo Marx wrecking the fabric of society. We just kept it up night after night, year after year, until the play I'd ironically titled 'Free Peltier' became almost an annual event, almost like 'A Christmas Carol' over at the Whitey Community Theatre in town which would never, never allow us to put on our irreverent allegory of tragedy and comedy. We'd asked them and the picturesque Black Hills Playhouse up in Custer State Park, not far from the bad sculpture of something that was being called 'Crazy Horse Mountain' for millions of tourists, to let us put on 'Free Peltier', even as a midnight show, but there was no room in their perennials between Neil Simon and The Sound of Music. In 1990 we'd even asked their board of directors, affiliated with the University of South Dakota, to put on Kopit's 'Indians' in respect to the 100th anniversary of the Wounded Knee Massacre, but, like Senator Tom Daschle who refused to apologize for the massacre, there was just no place for Indians in a State that had an Indian population of 10% and of whom travelers from all over the world came to see not only Mount Rushmore but some remnant of Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse. The local Journey Museum had agreed rather enthusiastically to sponsor us for a performance or two in 1997, but at the last minute they withdrew their invitation as well. Crying, the newly-arrived white lady from New York who was the museum's director of education and who had eagerly signed the contract with me, explained their board of directors had nixed the controversial project. "It's Janklow," ol' Marv Kammerer explained while we tried to console the poor lady out in the hallway, where she was so afraid she had to hide and whisper. "His rich buddies like Stan Adelstein are on the board of directors." "Janklow?" "Yeah. He runs the State, you can be damn sure. You got a scene in there about him raping that girl, Jancita Eagle Deer." "Yeah. But he can't sue anymore, after losing the case to Matthiessen and Newsweek." "That doesn't matter." To this day the play hasn't been seen outside of the reservations and a few community centers in the border towns, and on video which our great Irish cameraman and impresario Bill McIntyre shot, but which has never aired anywhere even on cable access channels. Bill's always trying to sell Buddy Red Bow's music videos to MTV, or the feature video to downloadable computer companies, but no luck. We've tried innumerable times to create some jobs for Skins in TV and all the performing arts, forming corporations and limited partnerships, submitting proposals to tribal councils and foundations, arguing that there is a huge worldwide audience for Native programming in education and entertainment as 'Dances With Wolves' and thousands of popular cowboy- and-indians movies and sitcoms have proved over the centuries, but no luck. Generations of George McGoverns and Bill Janklows come and go, but unemployment remains steady between 60-80%, which keeps the prison population steady at 40%, fetal alcohol syndrome increasing, rapes increasing, real estate prices increasing. I'd argued to sympathetic producers like David Wolper at Warner Bros (who did the atrocious mini- series of Mystic Warrior based on the book 'Hanta Yo') that Indians were highly talented visual and performance artists, and could go into all the clean careers of the technical skills in filmmaking as well, replacing casinos and cattle-ranching as a better economy for the West, but no luck. We'd submitted countless budgets and proposals to generations of Tom Daschles and Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbells to build up Native production studios, but no luck. Instead, Jay Hart put on a grotesque FBI mask and screamed at an actor playing Leonard in a jail cell, "Shut up! No praying in there!" I jumped out in a two-faced Phantom of the Operaesque mask and chortled, "Ha ha, puns, shut up in jail. That's good. That's good. Half the world is starving to death and you guys are making jokes." "Who are you?" Leonard asked. "Oh ho, good question, Ciye, good question. A lot of people have been asking that for a long long, loooong time. Some people call me Unkcegila, The Dump Under The Earth, or the Devil, or Dionysus. Since we're in Lakota territory I'll call myself Iktomi, the dirty spider trickster." "I've heard of you," Leonard sighed saidly. "I'm in no mood for jokes today. It's going on 30 years I'm in the Joint now." In so-called reality, Leonard himself had first approved of the play back in 1994 when we first proposed it to him, and snuck the script into Leavenworth through some friends like Joe Chasing Horse and Rosalie Little Thunder for him to read. He was only allowed to read it while they were there, with guards hovering over his shoulder wondering what was so funny, and then return it after the 2 hour visit. Since theatre efforts are always short on men and long on women, Alice Johnson first read all the whitemen in the play who were all named George, and it was an hilarious conceit from the first. Kathy Burnette read the part of Myrtle Poor Bear, which was pretty ironic and appreciated by all of us, as Kathy had played Anna Mae Aquash in the Ted Turner TV movie 'Lakota Woman', with Mrs. Turner aka Jane Fonda often on the set as the producer and inflaming the Vietnam Vets around town who truly hated her as 'Hanoi Jane', and it was Myrtle who had been directly involved in important aspects of Anna Mae's murder back in 1976. In fact, as the years progressed and FBI investigations into the unsolved case grew, the play grew into more of a paean to Native women than men, and Anna Mae grew into mythic proportions as the personification of all of them. Powerful, beautiful, and tragic, she became almost Everywoman who'd gone unnamed since Columbus in countless massacres, childbirths, heroic struggles for their lands and families in all the Americas from the Arctic to the Antarctic, but also especially important to women as a fallible woman. One lady on an internet chat room snapped, "What's so important about this chick? She drank and slept around." Kathy was embarrassed and a little annoyed, at first, to be playing Mrytle, who was just about the antithesis of Anna Mae. Myrtle was always sneered at by many men (and women, if the truth be known) in the Movement as an ugly, alcoholic, slightly retarded, fat, semi-illiterate fool who had been threatened, and even tortured, by the FBI agents David Price and William Wood until she signed phony affidavits that were used to extradite the fugitive Leonard Peltier from Canada. She later admitted in his trial in Fargo in 1977 that she didn't even know the dynamic Peltier, let alone had never been his girlfriend as she'd said in the 3 affidavits or heard him brag about killing the two FBI agents Jack Coler and Ron Williams. Her tearful, clumsy testimony on the witness stand, and in my play, was one of the most heartbreaking episodes in all our struggles, as she told of the FBIs threatening to do to her young daughter what they'd done to Anna Mae, showing her gruesome autopsy pictures, she said they'd said, of the dead woman mutilated and decomposed, if she, Mrytle, did not sign the affidavits and lie to the world, and make her own name anathema to all Indians everywhere who loved Leonard. Anna Mae's story became epochal as much because of the sickening manner in which she was treated in death - her hands cut off for identification at the FBI crime lab in D.C., they claimed, and exhumed from a Jane Doe grave for a second or even a third gruesome autopsy - as with the constant harrassment and arrests she'd suffered in life.

  • The American Indian Movement's Strategic Choices
    The American Indian Movement’s Strategic Choices: Environmental Limitations and Organizational Outcomes Timothy Baylor Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania The roots of modern Indian protest reach backward in history and forward into the future. Modern protest developed out of specific historical contingencies. For many protesters, the immediate concerns of housing shortages, police brutality, poverty, unemployment, and similar issues existed along side other issues such as identity and status within the American mosaic. Did Indians represent just another ethnic group bound to be assimilated by American society, or did Indians embody something different and far more significant – nations? As modern Indian protest escalated, the question increased in salience. Nancy Lurie explained that “Indian distinctiveness ... stressed culturally and historically” included an “emphasis on treaties rather than judicial recourse in obtaining perceived rights of Indians,” “an attitude that all other Americans are ‘immigrants,’” and that Indians as the “‘First Americans’ deserve special consideration (1972:308). In this sense, Native Americans were different than Blacks and other ethnic minority groups; they were the only ethnic group the U.S. Supreme Court had defined as “domestic dependent nations” in Cherokee Nation v. Georgia (1831). Just what this meant and the degree of tribal sovereignty this status conveys has continued to be a matter of political and judicial wrangling. Regardless of the Indians’ status as “domestic dependent nations,” the overall American policy was one of assimilation in which reservations were seen as a temporary necessity until Indians had gained the necessary cultural, educational, and technical levels of competence necessary to participate in American life. Central to accomplishing this end was the boarding school system.

    Ward Churchill becomes lightning rod for 911 grief by Paul Wolf, 3 Feb 2005 Date: Thu, 03 Feb 2005 12:26:35 -0500 From: Paul Wolf <[email protected]> Subject: Ward Churchill becomes lightning rod for 911 grief Introduction 1. Churchill a lightning rod 2. Professor Is Assailed by Legislature and Vandals 3. American Indian Movement Press Release 4. CU prof affirms Indian heritage 5. New Republic Calls for Death and Torture of Arundhati Roy and Stan Goff 6. Graham Defense Update, Feb. 2, 2005 7. Did September 11 Cause a Constitutional Paradigm Shift? Introduction A media frenzy has developed surrounding a 2001 Ward Churchill article entitled "Some People Push Back: On the Justice Of Roosting Chickens," in which Dr. Churchill compares the World Trade Center victims to nazis, and suggests that if there was any better way to punish them for their complicity in the 1991 gulf war, he’d like to hear about it. This was indeed a foolish and unscholarly theme for an essay, dismissing the distinction between civilians and combatants set out in the Geneva Conventions half a century ago. By Churchill’s logic, his own death in such an attack would be justified. But that’s beside the point. Churchill’s article was obviously intended to be offensive. What’s amazing is the ability of Bill O’Reilly to pull this scandal out of the dustbin. It must have been a slow news day at Fox for Mr O’Reilly to have seized on this three year old article. O’Reilly is an expert character assassin, and should be held accountable in a court of law for the death threats and other harms Churchill has suffered.

DEFENDANT MARSHALL’S JOHN BOY PATTON, and MEMORANDUM OF LAW VINE RICHARD MARSHALL, a.k.a. IN SUPPORT OF RICHARD VINE MARSHALL, a.k.a. MOTION TO SEVER TRIALS DICK MARSHALL, Defendants. In this case, the government seeks to prove that in December 1975, co-defendant Graham, along with cooperating witness Arlo Looking Cloud and unindicted coconspirator Theda Clark, abducted and kidnaped Anna Mae Aquash in Denver, Colorado, and drove her to Rapid City; that Graham raped Aquash in Rapid City; that the three took Aquash to Rosebud, South Dakota, and out to the Badlands near Wanblee, where John Graham, assisted by Clark and Looking Cloud, shot and killed her. As to Richard Marshall, the government’s theory is that Graham, Looking Cloud, and Theda Clark, along with Aquash, stopped at the home of Richard Marshall in Allen, South Dakota, after they left Rapid City, and asked Marshall to keep Aquash there at his home and that Marshall refused. The government’s entire prosecution against Richard Marshall is based on Looking Cloud’s claim, which he evidently made for the first time in 2008, that he saw Richard Marshall gave Theda Clark a handgun and a box of shells in the presence of John Graham. 1 The government’s theory is that Graham, Looking Cloud, and Clark murdered Aquash because they and other members of AIM suspected that Aquash was a government informant.

ADMISSIONS BY A PARTY-OPPONENT DICK MARSHALL, AND MEMORANDUM OF LAW Defendants. Defendant Richard Marshall, by and through undersigned counsel, hereby gives notice to the government of his intent to offer into evidence statements made by the United States Attorney in the trial of USA v. Arlo Looking Cloud, CR 03-50020, and in the appeal of that case to the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, No.04-2173, as admissions by a party-opponent under Rule 801(d)(2)(B)(C) and (D) of the Federal Rules of Evidence (FRE). This memorandum of law will set forth the evidentiary basis for the admission of such statements. Factual Background In 2003, the government indicted Arlo Looking Cloud and co-defendant John Graham, charging them with first degree murder in the killing of Anna Mae Aquash in December 1975. In 2004, the government convicted Arlo Looking Cloud of murder in a jury trial. This Court imposed a mandatory life sentence. Looking Cloud appealed his conviction to the Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit. In 2005, that Court affirmed his conviction in United States v. Looking Cloud, 419 F.3d 781 (8th Cir. 2005). In 2008, Arlo Looking Cloud agreed to cooperate with the government and testified before the grand jury.

Jumping Bull, 75, now lives on the family ranch where 30 years ago, tension between the two camps escalated when FBI agents Ronald Williams and Jack Coler were shot in the head at point-blank range after being injured in a shootout. They had come here to serve arrest warrants. AIM member Joseph Stuntz also was shot that day, June 26, 1975, on the southwest corner of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation. The Justice Department concluded an FBI sniper killed Stuntz, who was clad in Coler's FBI jacket when his body was found. "This is the place he was found," Jumping Bull said of a spot now green from a recent rain. Stuntz' gravesite at a nearby cemetery reads: "Incident at Oglala Warrior, American Indian Movement Patriot." Two AIM members, Robert Robideau and Dino Butler, were acquitted of killing Coler and Williams. Robideau now is a spokesman for another AIM member, Leonard Peltier, who was convicted of the agents' deaths in 1977 in Fargo, N.D., and sentenced to life in prison. Peltier, 60, has maintained his innocence. His lawyer and others have said the FBI framed Peltier. The agency denies the allegation.
