Eyewitness
Journalist Kevin McKiernan Urges Closure for Divisive Period in
Indian History
Kevin McKiernan
"was there on June 25, 1975, outside the Jumping Bull ranch on
the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, when some of the bullets were
flying." In his editorial,
he provides eye witness account to the "climate of fear"
on Pine Ridge at the time, saying that "it matched anything I
have experienced reporting from war zones like El Salvador and the
Middle East." Mr. McKiernan concurs with Judge Heaney who wrote
in his clemency plea, "At some time, the healing process must
begin. We as a nation must recognize their unique culture and their
great contribution to our nation."
