Timothy 'Little Rock' Reed, prison activist
Timothy "Little Rock" Reed, a crusader for the rights of American Indians in O hio prisons, died Saturday in Albuquerque, N.M., from injuries suffered in a car accident. He was 39.
Reed served a decade in Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville and said Ohio authorities wanted to silence him for speaking out against alleged abuses of Indian prisoners.
He was in prison for armed robberies and drug theft. One of his crimes involved an armed robbery at the Crookshank Chili restaurant in Cincinnati in 1982.
While in prison, Reed transformed himself from a young thug to a jailhouse legal expert, filing documents for fellow inmates and organizing a group that worked for Native American prisoners' religious rights.
He wrote a book, "The American Indian in the White Man's Prison: A Story of Genocide," that was eventually published.
Some questioned whether Reed himself was a Native American. He said he was a Lakota Sioux descendant, but acknowledged he couldn't prove it. Nevertheless, he championed Native American issues, including their right to religious worship while in prison.
"He's a hero among Native American prisoners," said Dinah Devoto, a former Villa Hills, Ky., council member who assisted Reed. "When he made these atrocities real in my eyes, I couldn't not help."
Reed was born in Illinois and attended schools in Cincinnati and Dayton, Ohio. Survivors include his mother, Nancy Scull of Delhi Township; his wife, Leanna Brownlee-Reed; and a son, Jasper. Funeral services are incomplete.
