Incident at Oglala
Date: 1/1/1988Call Number: CD 205Format: DVDProducers: Michael AptedCollection: Compact discs and videos representing digitized copies of analog tapes
This powerful documentary by director Michael Apted chronicles the troubling story of Native American activist Leonard Peltier. Amid tensions between the federal government and the Lakota Sioux and within the Indian population itself dating back to the occupation of Wounded Knee in 1973, two FBI agents and one Native American were killed in a hail of gunfire on South Dakota's Pine Ridge Reservation in 1975. Peltier was subsequently arrested and jailed for the crime although the evidence against him was questionable. Narrated by Robert Redford (also the executive producer), the film revisits the crime scene and assembles archival footage and interviews to show how Peltier was never granted a fair trial, while painting a larger portrait of social injustice in view of the contemporary living conditions of Native Americans.
