Fallout from Oscar Winner’s Speech Gets Even Worse as Hundreds of Hollywood Stars Sign Open Letter
Congratulations to Jonathan Glazer for replacing Sacheen Littlefeather as the face of the moral bankruptcy at the Oscars.
For those with better things to think about than the 1973 Academy Awards, Littlefeather was the Native American activist who was sent up in place of Marlon Brando to accept his Best Actor award for his role as Vito Corleone in “The Godfather.” She also lectured Americans about how we were all on stolen land.
Littlefeather’s speech has become a touchstone for all that is askew with the ethical compass of those who perceive themselves as our betters because they work in the world of make-believe.
Thankfully, 51 years after Littlefeather’s address, we had Glazer rambling about how his movie’s producers “refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked” due to Israel’s war against Hamas.
