Synopsis

In this silent clip, demonstrators in front of the U.S. Courthouse on Spring Street in downtown Los Angeles carry signs in support of the American Indian Movement (AIM) and the occupation of Wounded Knee that took place earlier in the year. Signs have messages such as "Support the Wounded Knee defendants" and "Los Trees Committee supports American Indian Movement Wounded Knee."
