Welcome home event set in Belcourt for Leonard Peltier

Peltier, a member of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa and a longtime activist with the American Indian Movement, was granted clemency by President Biden last month. Supporters have long argued his conviction was flawed. KX News has more on the story linked below.
