This poster was produced for an event at Velodrome in Carson, California on April 29th, 1993 featuring Rage Against The Machine, Beastie Boys, Cypress Hill, X, and more! The show was a benefit for the freedom of Leonard Peltier. Peltier is a Native American activist who is perhaps best known for his imprisonment in the United States. Peltier, a member of the American Indian Movement (AIM), was convicted of the murder of two FBI agents, Ronald Williams and Jack Coler, during a 1975 shootout on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota.

 

Peltier's case has been highly controversial, with many believing that he was wrongfully convicted. Supporters argue that he was a political prisoner and that his trial was marred by misconduct, including the withholding of evidence and the use of unreliable testimony. Peltier's case has drawn the attention of human rights organizations and activists, both in the United States and internationally.
