Remembering Indigenous Actress Sacheen Littlefeather, Who Was Mocked & Threatened at Oscars in 1973

- On Indigenous Peoples' Day, we remember the Indigenous actress and activist Sacheen Littlefeather, who died last week at the age of 75, not long after she received an apology 50 years after she spoke at the Oscars in protest of Hollywood's portrayal of Native Americans. In 1973, she accepted an Oscar on behalf of Marlon Brando, who boycotted the ceremony, only to face boos from the crowd, threats of physical violence from the actor John Wayne and mocking by Clint Eastwood. The speech derailed her acting career, but she never stopped speaking out. "It was critical for the psyche of all our relations to bring awareness to and interrupt the negative interpretation and representation of Native American people by the film television and sports industries," said Littlefeather, reflecting on her speech at the Oscars in September, just three weeks before her death.

If you can believe Ms. Littlefeather's sisters, she was about as "indigenous" as Senator Elizabeth "Pocahontas" Warren.
Thank you. We're not indigenous. Watch my live interview Latino Slant Pauli RUclips 12/3/22 for truth
Let's not forget who the mockers foremost were: Clint Eastwood (chair conversation enthusiast) and John Wayne (racist and wife beater).
Despicable behavior of these two overrated actors.
the book "Jesus and John Wayne" comes to mind. it basically argues that white "christians" look up to him and his message of white supremacy and genocide
You forgot Liza Minelli
During WW II John Wayne refused to go to war instead stayed home watching kids. Like a housewife
@@edouardmilan1378 Did they ever change anything?
Real name, Marie Louise Cruz, Californian father of Mexican-spanish descent, Californian mother of European descent. Her heart may have been in the right place, but she was, according to her sisters, not of native American ancestry.
her heart wasn't in the right place , she was a manipulative crook
You forget that all the southern west states were MEXICO . Don’t be toxic and envious
How can stating facts be toxic and envious?
@@ruedrolet because you are trying to mislead people. 98% of Mexicans are native and before those states were robbed by the kakas crown 👑 of Killingland they were wholly part of Mexico or rather the state of the Aztecs . Get it straight. Now yes she is 1/2 white but it doesn’t mean she is not native
Her speech was super polite and kind (I am very touched). I do notice also the applauses that seek to crush away the very rude boos. She was quite courageous!
But we are so hated here on the earth but have no power 🤔🤔🤔🤔but we walk in our Creator's power only.
John Wayne and Clint Eastwood going after her because she was vocal about the mistreatment of the American Indian? Give me a f******! break. And yes!! she disarmed the audience with her politeness. Thank you!!
@@elic.j.4294 Yeah, the fact John Wayne tried to physically stop her blows my mind, but the fact security stopped him (though he was a star) warms my heart.
Classy Lady..
@@elic.j.4294 says a lot about their character.
How courageous she was! And a true ally Marlon was!
⌚
I saw the event live in 1973. I was proud of her then and I still am. There are so few like her left. And not enough who shun poilitical correctness and stand and fight.
beautiful inside and out then and now
What a wonderful woman !
Marlon Brando should've gone up there to reject the award himself. He set her up
Funny how given enough time, people and positions which were once unpopular are eventually proven to be true and people who were once popular are shown up as the racist garbage that they were and are. I think it was Martin Luther King who once said that the moral arc of the universe bends towards justice and this proves it. Sacheen Littlefeather deserves every apology and then some from AMPAS. and AMPAS needs to disavow some of their star members who have shown themselves to be the bigots that they were and are. It's not just John Wayne who was problematic, but a whole bunch of actors, directors, producers from the 1930's-80's many of whom we consider as "legends" when really they were nothing to write home about. People like James Stewart, Spencer Tracy, Clarke Gable, Maureen O'Hara etc.
This speech took bravery by Little Feather. Shows the Entitlement of men. She did good. 50 years later she received an apology.
Men?!? haha, dont you mean white people (White men & women)!!!
Many of those booing were White Women!!!!
Don't know if you noticed, bit it was a man (Brando) who gave his speech to her so she could say this. Stop trying to divide us Vladimir's bot.
50 years later and Indians have no representation in mainstream culture their still being punished and rendered invisible.
Her name was Marie Cruz she was a fraud she was not Native American and her 2 full blood sisters have outed her
I also prayed to my family. Like her, they were in Spain
What's wrong with being Spanish?
Reminds me of miss cleo. It's in the BULL
She's a fraud from Mexico
The problem with speaking truth to power is, it still leaves you with the truth, and them with the power.
Rachel : Those people have No power at all. They are simple a group of clowns. Power is a positive force. Power does not negativity.
There powers is called Abuse. Abusers are warped minded nobodies that are desperate to be somebody
Truth is truth and it always wins.....
Or in this case nothing since Sacheen wasn't Apache 🤣

What a real hero looks like. Not those racist statues the south and John Wayne argued to protect.
This channel should do a story honoring Johnny Two Feathers.
John Wayne and Clint Eastwood both were dead beats ,and today Hollywood has not changed, African Americans have had the same treatment ,. R.I.P. BRAVE WON
Thank You For Sharing ❤️ 🇺🇸
Why isn't there any footage of John Wayne being held back by six security guards? And why isn't there anyone else talking about it? I'm sure this would have drawn some attention.
I remember seeing the Oscar's that evening and reading about Clint Eastwood and John Wayne in some magazine or newspaper of the left. We all knew Marlon Brando 's activism against the Vietnam War and how he protested for equal rights for both African Americans and women's equality.
No footage? Because the same forces that made White people look like "the victim" and "only defending themselves against the Indians" already wasn't dealing in reality.
@@ileanahernandez1709 Eastwood's speech is on YT. But nobody ever talked about what she claimed about John Wayne. If six security guards had to hold him back, he would have been long out of his seat. Wouldn't you at least expect her to glimpse or for there to be an uproar in the audience? Not a single person in that audience ever said such a thing.
@Lupe Ramos she lied about everything. I'm her sister Rosalind Cruz. Watch my live interview Latino Slant Pauli RUclips 12/3/22 for the truth
John Wayne had to be stopped by six security guards from attacking her what a vile man to act so bad!!
And there we were as children thinking he was a true hero. At least we know now that he was a total sellout.
@@Andyreally "true hero" John Wayne avoided service in WW2 (unlike many A-List Actors) BUT John Wayne loved to TALK tough about War. Same for Ron Reagan.
No he didn't. The story was debunked by the LA Times; just like Sacheen's sisters debunked her Apache heritage 🤣.
He had no respect for any woman.
@@SavageMoments956 I think you need to get off your horse and drink your milk.
Took 45 years to apologize? I lived in Washington State and grew up there and most Americans did not like her at all. Only the odd person other natives and hippies though she did the right thing. People went half nuts when MLK day was first begun. She was brave. I am proud.

She was threatened by the Oscars ceremony people in charge immediately before going on stage. THAT is why she couldn’t read the original written speech Brando gave her. She was terrified.
Totally disgusting how Hollywood treated Littlefeather - that superficial apology was too little too late.
I agree
And she humbly accepted. Whilst waiting 40+ years😇
She wasn't even Native, LOL.
Yep, her sisters say she is full of shit. Posing for playboy to in 1973? Nothing wrong spreading your legs in front of a camera, but it hurts the cause.

She wasn't Native American
@@williamcollins2360 there is some debate over that, but Native Americans have supported her throughout. & even if she isn't Native American biologically, she's definitely Native American philosophically & spiritually.
@Ungrateful Ninja so you are saying her 2 blood sisters are lying and all the evidence they have is a lie? And we aren't talking about someone who just simply adopted the culture and Native American way of life or someone who has been an advocate or ally to natives we are talking about someone who committed fraud and lied about their ancestry
@Ungrateful Ninja Native Americans have an epidemic of Pretendians. They rob their voice, speak for themselves without regard to their problems, and steal their identity for personal gain. In this case, the victim Saint act. She was a fraud and bad actress. The only role she could get was the one her schizophrenic personality created. Sacheen Littlefeather
@@ungratefulninja4535so its ok to appropriate a culture....sometimes?
She was a beautiful woman.
She was a fraud
@@williamcollins2360 She did what she had to. Can you say you did better in your life? Unlikely.
@Saulo Silva yes I 100% can say I did better I'm not out here being fraudulent about my ancestry for my own benefit.
A liar
@@saulo07 You mean go on stage for all of America to see that she represented herself as something she is not to further a cause that she really had no first-hand knowledge of?
I thought you guys researched your stuff? Yes she died. Bless her. But her two sisters say their family is Mexican. You can find it anywhere. Side eye on who put this together, we don't continue lies bcuz we feel a way. She is not Apache. She lied to her grave but her sisters set it straight for their FAMILY.
This channel has never issued a retraction. That should tell you something.
We are truly imprisoned in an Orwellian existence-by supposed allies. It’s sickening

THE MOST TALENTED ACTRESS TO EVER BE BLACKBALLED!!!! Played Sacheen for 50 years, while in reality was a 2nd-Generation Californian Actress of Mexican-European decent, named Marie Louise Cruz… Thank God they have finally corrected this unfair treatment!!
She played such a great role that John Wayne turned full cowboy and went on the attack.

Takes a lot of courage to be a fraud on TV for 50 years.
It still makes me laugh when white people think that they were the cowboys. They were rarely any Cowboys who were white. Why do you think they eat beans, they were primarily Mexican, native American and blacks or African Americans. Neither the mexican, native American nor the African American to get jobs in stores or in the bank or at the funeral homes or anywhere. They were the cowboys. There were some white guys who would become Cowboys because they were ostracized by the town. But you always see the Chuck wagon and the Cowboys eating beans that's because they weren't white. But if you look at American movies every single cowboy was white. And every single white person had a job in the town. It erases all the Mexicans who were here before them, all the native Americans who were here before them, and all the African-American slaves who weren't going to Canada, they were going to the West. We went to war with Mexico to try to get some of the slaves back during the Texas war. And Mexico would rather give up its land than give up the runaway slaves. For every one slave that made it to Canada, it's estimated as many as 7,800 to 10,000 made it to Mexico, or back then to Texas which was part of Mexico. When Mexico lost Texas and much of the Southwest went to United States you see many Africans running to the Caribbeans, Latin America, etc free Mexico might give them back to the United States rather than lose that land.
Well, I disagree with "beans", Cowboys had no refrigerators, meat would spoil. But another reason Cowboys "weren't White" is because while the portrayal of the American Cowboy was romantic, the reality was anything but. Cowboys were either driving cattle to new grazing territory or to Market and much of their life was living in the elements : Hot or cold, dry or wet. It didn't pay well and it didn't change much.
@@arcanondrum6543 beans and rice would keep without refrigeration and bugs didn't eat the dried beans. Once in water, it was thirty minutes then five to fry them. Refried beans and maize tortillas make a meal full of fiber, protein and carbs.
You made some good points. However, most of your comments are inaccurate, flawed and concocted narratives.
Let's be reminded that there were no cows/ cattle, no horses (a prehistoric horse became extinct in Western Hemisphere about 12-16,000 years ago), no sheep, no goats, no chickens, and other ' so called farm animals' in North and South America before the Spanish and Portuguese (Europeans) arrived.
(North & South America had plenty other mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, plants, etc .... for millenniums to millions of years. They eventually nurtured the Indijinos peoples who migrated to Western Hemisphere from Asia some 10-16,000 years ago during retreating Ice-Age.)
Back to cowboys, cowboys is the anglicised Spanish word vaqueros out of Latin vacca -cow. It's well known that the Spanish brought horses, cows, sheep, and garden plants such as beans, lentils, etc to Mexico -and what we now call California, Arizona, New Mexico, Nevada, Colorado, Utah, Texas, Florida- they are Spanish & Indijinos names, and also to Central America, South America. And much later so did the French, English, Dutch and other Europeans.
related: The Indijnos cultivated maize, tomatoes, chili, cocoa, and other plants new the the Spanish. And vice-verso so were the Spanish (European) imports i.e., beans, lentils, etc all new to the Indijinos. There was gradual merging of many things.
The vaquero/ cowboy and horse as it relates to Western Hemisphere is basically a Spanish & Portuguese (European) import. Decades after the horse & other 'domesticated' farm animals were brought by Spanish & Portuguese to Western Hemisphere some Indijnos gradually adopted and embraced horses, cows... as part of their culture. For simplicity the Spanish & Indijinos are the origin of vaqueros/ cowboys in North America. Long before other Europeans, and sub-Sahara Africans arrived in Western Hemisphere.
The foregoing happened long before the 13 ++ British Colonies, French Canada, and the more recent 250 years and set-up of US & CAN.
As to the TV, films, and stories they are often used to establish a cultural, regional, national identity myths they draw selected bits and omissions from historical facts, use of novels, etc and through wide repeated distribution 'educate' public into mindsets. Often misleading away from facts and so to sell ideas, films, products, ...
So, now hopefully you know more and far more factual origin and profusion of vaqueros/ cowboys.
@@thevision4734 Please learn about origins of dried beans, and rice.
FYI the rice we know being popular today was not the rice of 500 years ago and later. Beans were brought to Western Hemisphere by the Spanish, so was the variants of modern rice available today.
Dried beans require particular processing, storage methods to keep bugs out. Similarly, does dried rice.
As to frying beans and rice they first require hydration then boiling to soften then colling to eliminate moisture before frying in oil.
Oils were very scarce in past, oils from maize, animal fats were precious and difficult to carry about for they became stale or rancid, or leaked out of containers.
So please learn facts so to avoid misleading yourself and others.

Yep. And to this day people still think people calling her a fraud for faking being Native American is ‘slandering her name’
Was sad to see that she was lying to the fact she was not Native American at all, she was born of a Mexican father in Oxnard California with no ties to Apache. Was bummed to see as seemed like an important subject to have a lie damage that.
Also, sad to see the democracy now did not pick up on this lie, and that many commenters on this video are not aware that she was not authentically Native American. She had some Mexican native heritage, but nothing to do with Apache

I understand very little of western feminism, but I can understand what Sacheen was talking about.
Is there no bigger path between them? Because the behavior seems entirely different. But what do I know, just asking...
RIP⚘💞
Good respect Amy Goodman!
Marlon your way is continue 🌹✌️
May someone continue Sacheem Littlefeather's legacy, of peace, love, unity, humility and humanity...We have evolved very little. We rather hide who we are. Tuberville made it clear...
She was a fraud
A real american hero. What a beautiful speech about the virtues attainable to all people!
So why didn't Brando do it himself!
R.I.P Elder… 😢😔😞🤬😡🇳🇬🇺🇸
What a brave woman! Marlon Brando, what a character!
Much respect for Marlon Brando for his acknowledgment, respect, and support of indigenous peoples of this country, whose land and lives were brutally ravaged, to build it on, and that, with centuries of stolen labor, by many millions of skilled, kidnapped, and trafficked humans from Africa.
Still, there is hope for America, but so much healing and Reparations need to be done for anything called, Great, to happen here..
Wow, what a lady!
🥀 Sacheen Littlefeather
She was not a Native American. She was a grifter, cosplayer. Her sisters are on record proving she and they had no NA heritage.
As the indigenous natives of this land we are proud of our sister our Creator TMH God is always with his chosen people IsRael JUDAH the 12 Tribes of Abraham here on the Earth 🌎 APTTMHGY.
Just so you know she was lying, she’s half Mexican half white, she isn’t Native American at all, her own sisters even came out saying she was lying, and also ‘Sacheen littlefeather’ was a stage name, pretty sure her real name was actually Maria Cruz
Fight for rights, a never ending struggle...
So brave of her to walk in there and speak truth to that mostly racist crowd. Rest in hell John Wayne and soon Clint Eastwood.
Speaking "truth" while lying about being an Apache 🤣
@Savage Moments I'm her sister Rosalind Cruz. She lied. Watching my live interview Latino Slant Pauli RUclips 12/3/22
Shame on Amy for not doing her research and perpetuating a lie.
Didn’t this info come out after she died because a journalist dug into it? You expected Amy to…do research into something that wasn’t public knowledge, as far as I know, until recently?
@@sankara5evereveryone should of done their research back in 2007 when her family spoke up. For instance J. Edgar Hoover ruining her career after she refused Brando's Oscar. Hoover died 11 months b4 the Oscar's. Pretty powerful dead man from the grave. No one confronted her so as a born pathological liar she made a career of becoming another persona. Narcissistic personality and schizophrenic bipolar delusional diagnosis created this fraud.
Sacheen ✊🏾
She was a fraud, her name is Maria Cruz. She used this facade to gain sympathy and recognition for a plight that wasn't hers.
She lied and slandered our family for personal gain and fame. Schizoaffective bipolar and narcissistic personality
All right Marlon!!!! Sacheen, what an inspiration!! Sad that I never heard of this until Littlefeathers' Death.
thank u
So Clint Eastwood mocked her along with John Wayne? These two old farts should know better.
Even as we talk on her life, the internet has erased her as being Native American. Her sister's claim they are of Spanish decent...
@Lugosi yes this is not funny.. Seriously look her up on Wikipedia.
@Lugosi I doubt at her age she would be offered anything from playboy. It's the sister's story after she died just 2 weeks ago.
Because I'm native American. Our ppl don't believe in playboy. America has been working hard to erase us. Funny to you, but not me.
@@ronniecarson8756 I'm native American too!
I was born in the USA. ("Native" from Latin "natalis" -- "of birth".)
"America has been working hard to erase us."
As you type on the European-Americans' internet.
Not native. Watch my live interview Latino Slant Pauli RUclips 12/3/22 for truth. I'm her sister Rosalind Cruz
Beautiful
