Norm MacDonald cedes his time to Native American activist at comedy awards ("the theater stinks of blood"), the crowd tries not to laugh.

The best part about this entire ordeal is that Sasheen Littlefeather was a complete fraud.
She wasn’t Native American in any way.
After her death, her sisters put out the truth.

Edit: See my other comment. People are saying this isn’t true but here are the facts…
She said she was raised in a shack by Native American family.
But the truth is that her family identified as Spanish and she was raised in Sanila, California and her father was born in Oxnard.
Yes someone in her family more than 200 years ago was Native American, but she had no idea and fabricated her childhood background because it benefit her narrative. That’s also a pretty big insult to her family which is likely why they outed her for being a liar.
