It’s Sacheen Big Littlefeather, the exploited and downtrodden indian, that picked up Brando’s oscar, and made a speech at the Academy Awards.

Sacheen Littlefeather’s real name is Marie Cruz, and her mother was French/German. Marie went on to make movies. crap ones, where she did topless scenes, baring “littlefeathers” that looked to be surgically enhanced into “bigfeathers.”

  1. @kafir , I was thinking Billie Jack when I saw the pic too.

    I remember her now back during Wounded Knee #2. I have a friend here locally whose cousin was picked to guard the contents of the Pine Ridge reservation safe – off the rez. That is, until the FBI came to visit him.

    I still side with the traditional Lakota. Go ahead and hate me. And I thought Little Feather looked pretty good back then too. Now, she looks kind of like my ex-wife. =8>o

  2. An addendum to my previous ^^ comment that I should have mentioned and really do miss the edit button over: my ex the way she looks NOW, not back when I was a victim of her full-time PMS every day of my life. There was a reason I put up with all the shit for so long. Stupid reason be it may.

    Now I can sleep in peace tonight. When will I learn to just keep my mouth shut??

  3. Today (still Friday here) is the anniversary of the start of the Wounded Knee occupation. Little Feather was given a script by Brando and Russell Means that she was supposed to read when she accepted Brando’s award. But she was told there that she would be arrested or escorted off the stage if she tried to read it. I’m pretty sure the script had to do with the Wounded Knee occupation by the Oglala Lakota.
    So she had to wind it with some ad lib crap about Native American actors instead; they were cool with that.

    Your 20 seconds in history .

  4. charliewalksonwater, they are just near Porcupine. They have a Non-evangelical mission and don’t do any proselytizing. They are just there to give a hand up, help fix what is broken. I can’t think of the Lakota word for that, but there is a word for giving a hand up, and that is what the ministry is based upon.

    I almost moved to Spearfish a few years back. Had some surgical problems that kept me from moving. The lady at the chamber of commerce was very helpful and nice.

    Beautiful country up there. But I don’t feel so welcome in the Black Hills. I think the Lakota should have everything that is listed in their legal deed and title from 1868 that the U.S. government screwed them out of.

  5. Bad_Brad, yes Brando was an ass. I think the only celebrity that was worth a shit in that whole bunch was Johnny Cash, if I remember correctly. Even Jane Fonda tried to throw her jock strap in the ring. Cashing in on Indian cred, I guess.

    Cash actually always cared about the Native People. Real guy.

  6. Once a very proud and noble people.
