Littlefeather refused to accept the Award for Best Actor on behalf of Marlon Brando, for his role in “The Godfather”, and in her speech, received a mixture of boos and cheers.
During the 60-second speech, Littlefeather spoke about the rights of Native Americans, whilst wearing Native American attire on stage.
Littlefeather will appear at a ceremony next month, and receive an in-person apology from the Academy, as well as discuss the future of Indigenous representation on screen.
