Killing In The Name
Check 1 2. No other government on the face of this earth has murdered more indigenous peoples than the United States government. And it's time for the United States government to face up to its history. The fact that Redneck Billy Clinton refuses to recognize Leonard Peltier's innocence is a continuance of its genocidal policies that must be confronted. Let's make sure all of our efforts are not in vain. Let's continue the pressure. This song is dedicated to brother Leonard Peltier and its called Freedom.
I would like to personally thank each and every one of you for coming out. I appreciate it. The Leonard Peltier defense committee as well as the American Indian Movementa LA chapter both have booths in the area. Please check them out, please check out the information. Let's leave here, let's fill our lines. Check this out, this song is called Killing in the Name.
Lineup
Show Notes
- Free Leonard Peltier benefit concert.
- Live debut of Tire Me, Year of the Boomerang, and Producer.
- The show originally was scheduled for two nights at the Hollywood Palladium but moved due to the Palladium's policy against "Rap shows".
- A LA Times blurb published on 1994-04-23 about the show notes, "‘Freedom’ Restricted: The “Freedom of Leonard Peltier” benefit concerts featuring Rage Against the Machine, Cypress Hill, X, the Beastie Boys and other bands scheduled for Thursday and Friday have been moved from the Hollywood Palladium to the Velodrome at Cal State Dominguez Hills because of the venue’s policy against booking rap shows. A spokesman for the Palladium said the rap acts were added after the show was booked for organizers Rage Against the Machine, and he would not comment about the timing of the cancellation. Due to the change of venue, there will be only one concert, on Friday, but tickets from both Palladium shows will be honored and 2,000 additional tickets go on sale today. The show will be general admission and doors will open at 4 p.m. The concert had already been rescheduled from earlier in April because Rage Against the Machine bassist Timmy C. was injured in a biking accident."
