"The enthralling film, : a Reporter’s Journey, has been screening on local PBS affiliates this year, and it recalls how effective was in galvanizing US institutions to roll back destructive Cold War policies that exacerbated poverty, violence and incarceration."

John Trudell was born in 1946. He was the eloquent spokesperson for the United Indians of All Tribes’ famous takeover of Alcatraz, from 1969 to 1971, broadcasting at night as “Radio Free Alcatraz.” He later went on to a career in writing, poetry, music, and acting, as a healing response to the trauma of his family’s death due to a suspicious fire.

One of my biggest disappointment with President Barack Obama, that he didn't grant clemency to Leonard Peltier before he left office. I hope President Joe Biden will.

Words of John Trudell (Santee Sioux)

What It Means To Be A Human Being (2001, excerpt)

We are a part of the memories of evolution
These memories carry knowledge
These memories carry our identity
Beneath race, gender, class, age
Beneath citizen, business, state, religion
We are human beings
And these memories
Are trying to remind us
Human beings, human beings
It’s time to rise up
Remember who we are
