The late Sacheen Littlefeather died a hero. She was the “American Indian” Marlon Brando chose to refuse his Academy Award in 1973. Littlefeather said Brando was protesting “the treatment of American Indians today by the film industry” and “recent happenings at Wounded Knee.” The latter referred to a deadly standoff between American Indian activists and federal authorities.

Miss Littlefeather’s speech was short, and some in the audience booed. Whites weren’t entirely cowed back then, and “woke” politics weren’t a career requirement for celebrities. Littlefeather claimed John Wayne had to be physically restrained from pushing her off-stage. Clint Eastwood joked that maybe he should present an award “on behalf of all the cowboys shot in all the John Ford Westerns over the years.”

Now is a different time. George Floyd’s death in 2020 and the associated movement led progressives to finally conquer the state and impose a new, anti-white official American culture. Once-fringe concepts such as “land acknowledgements,” “Indigenous Peoples’ Day,” or honoring slaves rather than the Founding Fathers are mainstream.

In 2020, Californians proposed removing tributes to John Wayne, such as taking his name off the Orange County airport. Even a decade ago, Quentin Tarantino said he “hates” John Ford and his Westerns because they elevated “Anglo-Saxons.” Since the conquest of the West arguably defines America, attacks on Christopher Columbus, Western settlers, and cowboys mean that it would have been better if whites never came. We don’t belong here. American Indians are the “true” Americans.

Ideas like this have consequences. The Afrikaners have been in South Africa for about as long as whites have been in America. If their presence in Africa is illegitimate, so is ours here. Afrikaners’ cultural dispossession preceded political and physical destruction. South Africa today is the result.

That’s why Littlefeather’s legacy matters. She was an early glimpse of a now triumphant cultural movement. In 2021, The Guardian saluted her for being the “first woman of colour, and the first indigenous woman, to use the Academy Awards platform to make a political statement.” It compared her to “John Wayne, serial slaughterer of Native Americans on-screen and self-professed white supremacist.” In 2016, Jada Pickett Smith said Littlefeather was the inspiration for her boycott of the Oscars because of its alleged lack of diversity, something the LA Times said then-host Chris Rock should emphasize. This is amusing because Mrs. Smith’s husband Will slapped host Chris Rock at the most recent Academy Awards, stealing all the headlines. The political speechifying at the Oscars may be why many Americans don’t watch anymore.

In August 2022, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences apologized to Littlefeather for the “unwarranted and unjustified” treatment she received back in 1973. “For too long the courage you showed has been unacknowledged,” said former Academy president David Rubin. “For this, we offer both our deepest apologies and our sincere admiration.” Littlefeather said, “We Indians are very patient people.”

On September 17, the Academy groveled further by hosting “An Evening with Sacheen Littlefeather.” It included a land acknowledgement, a long interview with Littlefeather, and various entertainment acts, including Indians dancing in supposedly traditional garb. Earlier this month, Littlefeather died, to much praise.

She may not have been an American Indian at all. “Littlefeather’s” sisters now say she lied. “It was more prestigious to be an American Indian than it was to be Hispanic in her mind,” said one. Jacqueline Keeler at the San Francisco Chronicle broke the story as part of her effort to compile what she calls “Pretendians.” She found no links between “Littlefeather” and any of the tribes she claimed, including the Apache and Yaqui. “Based on an examination of her family tree, at most, it could be said she self-identifies as such, but on what basis, we do not know,” she wrote charitably.

This wasn’t the first time Littlefeather’s credentials were challenged. Roger Ebert — no conservative — wrote in a 2004 column memorializing Marlon Brando that Littlefeather was really “Maria Cruz, an actress who was not an Indian.” Lawyers wrote a stiff letter to Ebert claiming that Littlefeather was the child of “an Anglo-Saxon mother and a father who was Yaqui and White Mountain Apache.” Littlefeather’s own “authorized website” repeats the claims about her father but says her mother was “French-German-Dutch.”

However, mainstream publications are running the “lie” story.

Littlefeather was lucky her sisters waited until she was dead. Perhaps her estate will produce proof she was an Indian. If not, she’s certainly not the first woman who claimed to be a different race because it comes with privileges. We may never have heard of Elizabeth Warren if she hadn’t claimed to be an Indian, but her lack of tribal blood may have sunk her presidential campaign. Rachel Dolezal made quite a career being black before she was exposed, but she kept “identifying” as black anyway.

The Hispanic Littlefeather’s claim is interesting in light of Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s theory about Hispanics: They are all American Indians, and should be exempt from immigration laws. Perhaps if Littlefeather had lived a little longer, she would have shifted to this position.

Even for race realists, it may seem crass to talk about “Indian blood,” but that’s the term the federal government uses. It requires a “Certificate of Degree of Indian or Alaska Native Blood” (CDIB) if you want to claim membership in a “recognized tribe.”

The Cherokee Nation, for example, says an Indian must have at least one direct ancestor listed on the 1898–1906 Dawes Census. “Your blood quantum will be computed and placed on your CDIB,” its website says.

In 2011, NPR reported that American Indians intermarry more than any other group in the country. The 2010 Census showed about half of American Indians and Alaska Natives were multiracial. This is a problem because to enroll in most tribes, you have to be at least one-quarter Indian.

Many people want in. From 2010 to 2020, the Census found that the number of American Indians grew by more than four million. Immigration and birthrates can’t explain that; people want to be Indians.

This is new. The Declaration of Independence refers to “merciless Indian savages,” taking for granted that they are not Americans. Indians didn’t get blanket US citizenship until 1924. However, the racial barriers between whites and Indians were never as strong as between blacks and whites.

The Pocahontas-Captain John Smith romance may be exaggerated, but in 1614, the Indian princess did marry tobacco planter John Rolfe. She converted to Christianity and toured England, even visiting Whitehall. In the 1700s, Virginian historian Robert Beverly bemoaned the lack of intermarriage between Indians and Europeans, which he blamed for the violence between the two groups. The South’s premier university, The College of William & Mary, had an Indian school from 1700 onward, and colonial officials worked hard to get tribes to send students. One cannot imagine the aristocracy of Old Virginia promoting miscegenation and education as ways to bridge the black-white divide.

Indian violence, especially the near genocide of New England colonials in King Philip’s War, were a great boost to white racial consciousness in America. There was also some “red” consciousness. Tecumseh tried to build a pan-Indian alliance to fight whites.

Whites fought other whites for domination in North America, with various Indian groups taking different sides. Most of the Iroquois Confederacy helped the British during the Revolution, but the Oneida helped George Washington, leading the tribe to claim, with truth, that it was America’s “First Ally.” Stand Watie, a Cherokee, was the last Confederate general to surrender in the War Between the States. The Comanche practically exterminated other tribes, and non-Comanches seeking revenge helped the cavalry put them down.

American Indians represented a cultural challenge that blacks never did. Whites had a wary respect for them and there was some discussion of assimilation. Nineteenth century Americans praised great Indian warriors even in their own time. For example, Americans honored the Creek chief Alexander McGillivray (half-white) and the great Seminole leader Osceola (quarter-white). Today, America’s military arsenal boasts “Apache,” “Chinook,” and “Black Hawk” helicopters and the famous “Tomahawk” missile. While we can’t rule out what our rulers have in store in the future, Americans have so far named no tank or military base for Nat Turner.

The Comanche’s last chief was Quanah Parker. He was half-white, the son of Cynthia Ann Parker, a white woman whom the Comanche kidnapped when she was nine and who married a chief. Her story was the basis for John Ford’s The Searchers, probably the most famous Western of all time. It starred John Wayne. Many who complain about the way Hollywood treated American Indians start with this film.

But the story is more complex. Despite seeing Comanches torture and butcher her family, Cynthia Ann Parker joined her kidnappers. She was miserable after being “rescued” by whites. That is what lies behind Ethan’s (John Wayne’s character) sneer that Comanche captives “ain’t white anymore,” why he considers killing the kidnapped white woman “Debbie,” and why Debbie’s joy at being saved is fiction.

The simplistic story of whites crushing Indians insults them and us. They were warriors, not victims. They weren’t “Native Americans” because they were not Americans until they were conquered or assimilated. They had their own identities.

For every story of white settlers fighting Indians, there is a story of Indians allying with whites to fight other Indians. In the last century, they were the American equivalent to the British Gurkhas, serving in the Rough Riders during the Spanish-American War (when the Army was racially segregated) and as messengers in World War II. When Major League Baseball was still racially segregated, American Indian Jim Thorpe played for the New York Giants (now the San Francisco Giants).

No other group enjoys self-rule and citizenship the way they do. No other officially privileged identity is protected by such strict guidelines. It’s not surprising that many Americans, even Hispanics like “Littlefeather,” envy their special status and identity.

“Sacheen Littlefeather was a deeply troubled soul who struggled mightily with issues of identity and acceptance,” wrote Michael Cieply in Deadline earlier this week. Her father, the supposed Indian, was a violent alcoholic, yet that was the race she claimed. She suffered from mental problems and many of her claims are questionable. She deserves either contempt or pity for inventing an “oppressed” identity and trading on it her entire life.

These things don’t happen in a vacuum. Littlefeather never got to give Marlon Brando’s full speech. He argued that Hollywood is “as responsible as any for degrading the Indian and making a mockery of his character, describing his as savage, hostile, and evil.” He said Indian children have their minds “injured in ways we can never know.” Those who wish they are the ones being oppressed are far more mentally injured. We should be asking ourselves what built that climate.

Brando’s claim that the industry smeared Indians is also questionable. Just four years after The Searchers and 13 years before Brando’s protest, Elvis Presley played a “half-breed” in a film where the villains are whites who don’t treat Indians equally. The worst that can be said here is that Elvis wasn’t an Indian, but then, neither was Littlefeather.

Defining non-white identity as white oppression is condescending and cynical, and it disgraces everyone. It’s especially contemptible when the American Indian is used as a caricature of innocence. Why shouldn’t a mostly white country make movies for a mostly white audience about the historical fact that Indians attacked white settlers, often brutally? American Indians have a real history. Reducing them to a symbol of peace encourages more phony Indians.

The most notorious example may be “Iron Eyes Cody,” a character actor who played the “noble Indian” in many films. His most famous role was as the “crying Indian” in an environmentalist ad suggesting whites destroyed America. His real name was Espera Oscar de Corti and he was Italian. The Sopranos cited this in an episode satirizing the way ethnic groups in America compete for victim status.

The Academy and the media’s recent celebration of Littlefeather shows the deep moral sickness of our culture. She was misguided or a liar, but we can expect only embarrassed silence from the Academy.

Brando’s supposedly noble stance for Indians became a liability in 1996. He said who he thought was responsible for pushing movie stereotypes: Jews. This was left out of the recent media celebrations of Littlefeather’s supposed heroism. Brando eventually made a weeping apology to a group of rabbis, prompting Norm MacDonald to joke about it.

Mockery’s the best response. In America, claims of victimhood are demands for power. Scorn them. A culture in which people invent a fake identity to pursue wealth or soothe emotional needs is morally bankrupt.

Identity is mostly built in. It can’t be changed by wishing it away. Maybe we should encourage the federal government to expand its Indian policy to other racial groups. A government-mandated “Certificate of Blood” (CB) would spare us the spectacle of phonies faking victimhood. But what we really need is some kind of self-government, even the supposedly degraded form Indian tribes get. It would be a lot better than having no explicit representation in the country our ancestors built.

  2. The US needs to be broken up into many small “nations” in which each group that is the largest in population would have total control. If any other group lived there they would need to tow the line. The idea of continuing with this enormous monstrosity controlled by a Middle Eastern tribe to terrorize the world needs to stop. Only by breaking US up into many different nations would the power of the tribe be broken.

    That would have been a terrible idea and I’ll chalk it up to ignorance of biological racial differences. I’ve known a lot of half breeds over the years and most of them are resentful towards full blooded white Europeans and identify more with their black, Hispanic or Asian side than with their 50% white genetic heritage.

    Barack Hussein Obama is the most well known half breed who hates whites.

    The progeny of mixed race couplings are not post racial beings who possess special qualities that can unite the disparate races in America. If anything they become auxiliaries in the war against whites.

People only bully people who are weaker and FAKE Hollywood tough guys like Wayne, Eastwood and Brando were skeered of Big Jew.

    This is like Trump. Trump will TALK about stopping illegal invaders raping and killing Americans but he won’t go near Black on White violence. Trump sucks Jew cawk as well.

    Solution: Take away all the wealth that Jews have stolen in America and give it to the Indian. The Jew screwed Whitey and Whitey screwed the Indian. Problem solved.

    Burt Lancaster was mostly Scotch-Irish but he mostly failed to match Brando in the Spaghetti Bowl for actors.

    Burt Lancaster tried to outdo Brando as an Italian in the movie 1900. Burt Lancaster failed, Brando does the best non-Italian Italian in the movies. Brando in The Godfather beats Burt Lancaster in 1900 as the Italian impersonation winner, and the departed Brando still retains the Spaghetti Bowl trophy. The Lombardi/Corleone Trophy.

    Marlon Brando has the Island tour blood ancestry — England, Scotland, Wales, Ireland — as do I, and Brando also has German ancestry, as do I.

    White North Americans? How can 224-million people (20-million White Canadians) be so uniformly utterly dumb and so unabashedly stupid? That’s the $65-million question which will perplex future historians as they pick over the mountains of hardcopy and digital documents that recorded the slide of White North America up Molech’s arse.

    These future historians will be amazed to learn that White North American’s eagerly licked and gustily tasted the excrement as they were merrily hauled further up and into the stinking milieu of Molech’s sphincter.

    “How can we successfully inject the White North Americans with noxious substances that will kill, sterilise and main them?” asked Baal.

    “Easy,” said Molech. “We’ll just rattle the syringes in a tin bucket and they’ll come running like suck pigs to be injected.”

    And his word was done.

    “How can we successfully get the White North Americans to accept a noxious paedophilic President that will bankrupt, sterilise and main them?” asked Baal.

    “Easy,” said Molech. “We’ll send every trailer trash American a bag of blank ballots with the paedophile President already ticked and promise them a free sack of fentanyl for every ballot returned on voting day.”

    And his word was done.

    “How can we have a laugh at the White North Americans before we finally take everything they own?” asked Baal.

    “Easy,” answered Molech. “We’ll get our low-brow puppet Ron DeSantis to pass laws that protect our very obviously Satanic Ashkenazi Jews from White North American’s free speech. Then we’ll get DeSantis to release millions of mosquitos in his State that have been mRNA genetically modified with toxins by our favourite autistically insane son, Bill Gates, to poison White North Americans. Then we’ll have a good laugh as the dumb White Americans praise DeSantis as their Saviour.”

    “Yep, that’ll be funny,” agreed Baal. “But one last thing,” he added, “these White Christian North Americans think they are smarter than Jiggers and Arabs. How can we rub their noses properly in their own shite to prove to them that they are the dumbest of all humanity and get a really good last laugh at them in the process.”

    “Easy,” answered Molech. “We’ll get our brainless son Elon Musk to bully the White Christian creators of an electric car company and take it over and claim he started the company and created the cars. Then we’ll get him to start two other companies that make no money other than what they can borrow from the US Federal Government at zero percent.

    “Then for the icing on the cake we’ll get him to buy the propaganda tool known as Twitter. This will be really funny because Twitter has never made a profit in its entire existence. In fact, funding its propaganda and running its bots have eaten a very large hole in our lieutenant Rockefeller’s treasure trove.

    “Musk is the grandson of a Canadian Technocrat and Satanist that attempted on our behalf to enslave White Christian North Americans in the 1930s. Elon Musk makes no secret of who he is. He actually told the stupid White North Americans that the way they could ensure they don’t become slaves to Artificial Intelligence is to get chips in their brains themselves so that they’ll be just as smart as the AI.

    “I kid you not,” snorted Molech, “yet, after all this was done and Musk’s companies funded and promoted paedophile drag queen perverts putting on shows for White American children, White North American Christians and their Conservative media are end to end with praise for Musk buying Twitter. They see him as their Saviour on a par with DeSantis.”

    “How can these dumb stupid North American Christians not see that our son Musk only wants Twitter to attract them onto the platform and gather their data in pursuance of our Transhumanist and enslavement agenda. They offer no challenge,” opined Baal with a hurt and exasperated look.

    “They are genetic no-good cretins,” answered Molech. “But cheer up, when we move to Africa to Transhumanise and enslave the Jiggers at least they’ll offer us some intellectual challenge.”

    Danny Thomas was apparently in the running for the iconic role that went to Brando. He was Lebanese, which is Mediterranean and could probably have passed for Italian. Indeed, Hollywood uses Mediterranean people interchangeably, especially with Jews and Italians. In The Godfather, the actor who played Tessio was Jewish, while the actor playing Moe Greene was Italian.

    Does anyone know more about D. Thomas’ acting career who could comment on this? Offhand, it sounds like casting Jerry Lewis as Michael. Although he might have been a good Fredo.

    On the other hand, comedians are arguably better actors than actors are comedians. Scorsese knows that and likes to cast comedians, most notably Casino (Kevin Pollack, Dick Smothers [as Harry Reid!], most notably Don Rickles, and even Joe Bob Briggs as the dumbass casino worker whose firing leads to Ace’s problems with the gaming commission).

    The MST3k gang said that in The Skydivers, director Coleman Francis made the mistake of having skydivers do their own acting, rather than actors do their own skydiving.

    The American Indian is doing very well thank you, with their casinos and special privileges the government has given to them for making money. The main problem is that the monies that are made are not distributed evenly with most chiefs living in the lap of luxury while their fellow Indians are poverty stricken. As for giving them all the money the Jews took from the White man, money that isn’t earned isn’t valued and would be squandered, just like the demorats do with our money.

    The dinosaurs are neither good nor bad, they’re just themselves. The real conflict is amongst the humans.

    This is interesting along side this from Mr. Hood:

    American Indians represented a cultural challenge that blacks never did. Whites had a wary respect for them and there was some discussion of assimilation. Nineteenth century Americans praised great Indian warriors even in their own time.

    Whites were not “the first immigrants”, legal or illegal, because the Natives had no nations or countries; they were basically Stone Age warrior bands. Whites respected them as such, like the Jurassic Park dinosaurs: “Why look, an actual Noble Savage!” But you couldn’t seriously engage in commerce or treaties with them, any more than you would with a dinosaur or a faithful dog. Hence, buying vast tracts of land with glass beads, dishonoring treaties, etc. “The little red devils love their toys” (Blazing Saddles)

    Africans were in a way more advanced, as they had nations, rulers, empires etc. Of course, this is what led to some of them being captured, enslaved, and sold off to the Americans.

    Indians were outside the civilized world, and respected as such; blacks were part of it, but that part was the bottom rung. Indians were noble warrior while blacks were had failed or inferior nations.

  18. I remember reading that that fine man, Jean-Marie Lepen, once used the example of the Indian tribes suffering after the mass immigration of whites, to the temporary delight of his listener.

    However he did add:-

    “The difference is we Europeans are the Indians.”

  19. In America, claims of victimhood are demands for power. Scorn them. A culture in which people invent a fake identity to pursue wealth or soothe emotional needs is morally bankrupt.

    You don’t have to be Nietzsche to see this is only possible in a Christian society. Meek shall inherit the earth/God has chose the ignorant and foolish to mock the world’s wisdom/become as little children/be a sheep/become a slave of Christ etc. To be a victim is to be sacred.

    Before anyone starts mentioning the Teutonic Knights and the cathedrals, all that stuff is the “Roman” part of Roman Catholicism, an adulteration of the religion (“compromise with the world”) to make it a going concern. The original cult was a bunch of untermenschen huddling in a cave waiting for the end of the world that scorned them, when Jesus would return and punish the smart, rich, powerful. Every now and then someone reads the New Testament and starts a “more faithful” heresy, usually involving selling all you have, wearing no clothes (“Adamites”), scourging oneself, castrating oneself (“become a eunuch for the Kingdom of Heaven) etc.

    Christianity is unique in that its teachings are anti-social. It can only be a state religion if no one is allowed to read the Bible. The idea of “(Evangelical) Christian Nationalism” is an oxymoron. But then that’s the sort of thing that appeals to the Evangelical morons.

  20. the “Roman” part of Roman Catholicism

    Catholicism is also rationalism—not the narrow, blinkered rationalism of the natural sciences, but “a particular mode of thinking whose method of proof is a specific juridical logic and whose focus of interest is the normative guidance of human life.” The thinking of Catholicism is not limited in the way that economic-technical thinking is, yet contrary to what moderns would have us believe, it is highly rational, the result of absorption of Roman law and institutions.

  21. American Indians were playing major league ball before Jim Thorpe arrived. Allegedly, the first was Louis Sockalexis, a Penobscot Indian, who started playing with the Cleveland Spiders in 1897. He was so beloved by the fans that they changed the team nickname to the Indians. Of course, now that nickname has been deep-sixed in favor of the Guardians.

    Among the others was the A’s star pitcher Chief Bender, a member of the Ojibwe tribe, who started his career in 1903, won 212 games, and was named to the Hall of Fame in 1953.

    Another outstanding player was catcher Chief Meyers, a key member of John McGraw’s New York Giants from 1909 through 1915.

    Amusingly, in 1910 McGraw was so taken with a black player named Charlie Grant that he tried to pass him off as a Cherokee Indian named Tokohama. Obviously, it didn’t work, but in the ensuing years some teams, notably the Reds and the Senators, signed light-skinned Cubans and insisted they were white. No matter how you slice it, non-whites were playing major league ball before Jackie Robinson was beatified — actually before he was born.

Only thing Whitey is doing is taking orders from wimpy Jews and nonwhites. Blackie has help now from Browns and even Yellow opportunists, but it is the Jew in charge make no mistake about that. Blackie is only awarded crumbs for doing the grunt work.

    Are you a descendant of one of the sundry indigenous tribes of what is now the United States, a pure Indian rather than a mixture of Indian and European? If so, you wouldn’t be alive if not for “white colonialism,” whether you’re white or black or a Mestizo or Mulatto.

    Yes, the continent that is now “America” and the US and Canada would be “better” and superior in all of at least most ways if whites “never came” and conquered and it was still populated exclusively by 3-1/2 million stone-age savages who tortured, mutilated, scalped, gang-raped, slaughtered, and cannibalized each other in almost endless and ubiquitous tribal warfare.

    I get it, you have a raging hard on for Jews.. Not a fan myself either, but I was responding directly to Nat X and his reiterating about something referred to as “the day of the rope.”

    Chief Jay Stromboli, errrr… I mean Chief Jay Strongbow the professional wrestler was also a faux Indian. I believe he was from the Bronx.

    Everyone was claiming to be an Indian in the 70’s after the moronic, low-IQ Billy Jack movies. Thank God that time period is over.

    One of the most racist people I’ve known was a Native American. Real one, not fake Billy Jack. The guy hated black people.

  32. Indians were all white. But they have Mexicans and Asians play them in movies to trick us. Hollywood is a big lie.

    Burt Lancaster’s parents were from Belfast, Northern Ireland but they weren’t involved in marching around in bowler hats nor wearing sashes—no, they were Socialists and probably proto-Bolsheviks.
    He grew up in a part of East Harlem which was then very Italian (that would be Southern Italian and Sicilian. So it’s possible he observed some godfatherly types on his block.
    Didn’t he portray an Italian nobleman in Il Gattopardo? Didn’t you find his acting convincing?

    The Searchers told a few truths about “Red Indians” but not as many as Mark Twain did :

    There is no Christian theological defence offered for White Nationalism in the USA or Europe.

  36. Does anyone have Sam Bankman-Fried’s telephone number?
