Carol Gokee is the co-director of the International Leonard Peltier Defense Committee. Leonard  Peltier is one of the most prominent and longest-serving political  prisoners in the United States and the world. As a Native American  activist and member of 'AIM' (American Indian Movement), he is serving a  life sentence for the murder of two FBI agents in the 1970's after  having been convicted in a controversial trial. His story has inspired  many books and movies, including the documentary 'Incident At Oglalla'  and the Hollywood movie 'Thunderheart' starring Val Kilmer, Sam  Sheppard, Graham Greene, and John Trudell. Leonard Peltier is  suffering from many ailments and has recently been tested positive for  COVID-19 after unmasked guards had served him his meals in prison. Carol  Gokee is of Anishnaabe descent and a close friend of Peltier's since  her childhood. She is currently trying to get president Joe Biden to  sign the release of Leonard Peltier, whose conviction was based on  flawed evidence. https://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Peltier https://fundrazr.com/f1wE26?ref=ab_2EszZ7ZU9Ng2EszZ7ZU9Ng https://www.indianz.com/covid19/2022/01/31/leonard-peltier-defense-committee/ --- At the moment, Radio Aula Mundi is an evolving podcast station where no language and all languages are spoken… It’s  a multilingual mix of music, poetry, lectures, languages, interviews,  documentaries, recipes, and a lot more, co-produced with the students of  the ‘Aula Mundi International Cultural Center’… --- Radio Aula Mundi Centro Cultural & Turistico Aula Mundi Aula Mundi Cultural Travel Center https://radioaulamundi.bandcamp.com/  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/radio-aula-mundi/id1584156605 https://www.amazon.com/author/marcorixecker Spotify YouTube  https://castbox.fm/channel/Let's-talk-about-it%2C-anywhere-in-the-world...-id4725033?country=us Breaker Player FM Facebook  Radio Aula Mundi
