Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-desc-yt On Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we feature a conversation with one of the world’s most prominent champions for Indigenous rights, Leonard Peltier. “Indigenous Day is a day that’s been long overdue for any type of recognition,” says Peltier. “I am not going to give up, because we are not free yet. We are in danger. Trump and these organizations, they’re talking about doing away with our reservations and our treaties and everything else. … We’re going to stay here. You’re not going to get rid of us.” Transcript: https://www.democracynow.org/2026/10/12/leonard_peltier Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
