Marlon Brando didnt turn up to receive the oscar. He sent a INdian to receive on his behalf and make a speech abt the discrimination meted out ot INdians in Hollywood
"Brando protested the on/off-screen treatment of Native Americans (through alleged American Indian spokeswoman and half native-American Sacheen Littlefeather, president of the Native American Affirmative Image Committee) and declined the award."
Is this Sacheen Littlefeather refusing the Oscar award for The Godfather on behalf of Marlon Brando, protesting against the lack of representation of American Indians in mass media?
