I also would like to first comment on the wonderful mini-series. But I do not understand why Russell Means was centered on for much of the show when Leonard Peltier was not even mentioned?? He was an avid AIM supporter and was right there with Means. HE is the one who is locked up, w/o his meds, w/o his medical care, and has been turned down many times for parole, when the FBI has basically proven that he was not the one handling the gun at the time of the shooting. If he didn't want to cooperate, I'm sure he could at least have signed papers to have his name mentioned. This would be like showing a film on Mr. Bush and never mentioning Mr. Chaney!! An American Experience was fantastic; but this was a major oversight to leave out Mr. Peltier.
