Poster is printed on tan paper with blue text and image. In the center is a drawing of an eagle flying and holding a nuclear power plant cooling tower in its talons. It is flying towards a dotted circle. The upper left reads, "Honor the Earth.../ Honor the Earth and all her parts./ Respect the virtures of our mother.' The plants, the animals, the water, the air/ hold the secrets and wisdoms/ of our mother Earth./ Free Leonard Peltier." This poster links together three issues - opposition to nuclear power and uranium mining, support for the rights of indigenous communities to control their own environments, and a call for the release of a Native American political prisoner (Leonard Peltier, member of the American Indian Movement (AIM) convicted and sentenced in 1977 to two consecutive terms of life imprisonment for the murder of two Federal Bureau of Investigation agents during a 1975 shootout on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation.)
