12) Marlon Brando
Trending
Marlon Brando became known not only for his acting but also for his criticism of Hollywood's treatment of Indigenous peoples. In 1973 he refused to accept the Best Actor Oscar for The Godfather. He sent Sacheen Littlefeather, an Apache actress, to decline the award on his behalf. This action was a protest against the way Hollywood portrayed Native Americans and their mistreatment. Brando's protest sparked filmmakers to reconsider their representation of Indigenous communities, marking a pivotal moment in the fight for better representation in Hollywood.
