"They still don't want to admit to the world that this isn't the best and the fairest and most equal justice system. And that they are guilty of railroading people into jail. They don't want to, or never will, admit these things"

This quote by Leonard Peltier talks to the systemic injustice of the criminal justice system. He is saying that the system is not the very best, fairest, or many equivalent, and that individuals are being wrongfully convicted and sent to prison. He is indicating that the system understands this, but hesitates to admit it to the world. This speaks to the systemic racism and inequality that exists in the criminal justice system, and how it disproportionately impacts people of color. Peltier is requiring a more equitable system that wants to admit its faults and work to remedy them. He is also requiring higher openness and responsibility in the criminal justice system, so that those who are wrongfully convicted can be exonerated and those who are guilty can be held responsible.
