Discussing the film "Incident at Oglala"

Mar 08, 2017

A Q&A with director Michael Apted and Professor Michelle Raheja following a screening of Incident at Oglala (1992). American Indian Movement leader Leonard Peltier was arrested and convicted of murder following the deaths of two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in 1975. In Incident at Oglala, documentarian Apted captures the gross miscarriage of justice surrounding the mysterious event as well as the escalating tensions between Native American groups and the US government at the time.
