>Im native american!>Is whiteWas she based?
I guess the secret to a successful indian larp is to just....be italian?
>>122579515Nah, she's unmistakably native. She's textbook the phenotype. Not sure what you're on about, OP.

>white woman>based
I like her music, but I think the LARPing as native American thing was cringe. She was talented enough to not have that be a gimmick in order to be successful.
>>122579515Those teeth are freaky
She is currently facing jail time
>>122579515Illuminations is based.
>>122579619I know right. There are even lower quality photos than that where she looks more Indian

>>122579619Her birth parents are documented, they're white people from Massachusetts. The most impressive part to me is that she just lied her way into Canadian citizenship
>>122579515Meds aren't white
>>122579726i don't think they're real ones
>>122583018>whitehalf italian, and by the looks of her probably sicilian, which is part middle eastern
>>122583018>The most impressive part to me is that she just lied her way into Canadian citizenshipEasy when you can just claim to be an adopted native with no birth certificate. The most impressive part to me is how Buffy tried to silence her family with legal threats.>Some members of the Sainte-Marie family had attempted to clarify her European ancestry in the 1960s and 1970s, but the singer threatened them with legal action for doing so. In December 1964, Arthur Santamaria, Sainte-Marie’s paternal uncle, wrote to the Wakefield Daily Item, which published his editorial that Sainte-Marie "has no Indian blood in her" and "not a bit" of Cree heritage. Her brother, Alan Sainte-Marie, also wrote to newspapers, including the Denver Post in 1972, to clarify that his sister was not born on a reservation, has Caucasian parents, and that "to associate her with the Indian and to accept her as his spokesman is wrong". Alan Sainte-Marie's daughter Heidi has stated that, in 1975, her father had met Buffy and a PBS producer for Sesame Street while working as a commercial pilot. She has said that the producer later asked her father if he was Indigenous, because he did not look that he was. Her father clarified that they were of European ancestry and not Indigenous. On November 7, 1975, Alan Sainte-Marie received a letter from a law firm representing Buffy Sainte-Marie, which said, "We have been advised that you have without provocation disparaged and perhaps defamed Buffy and maliciously interfered with her employment opportunities." The letter also stated that no expense would be spared in pursuing legal remedies. Included with the law firm letter was a handwritten note from Buffy Sainte-Marie to her brother stating that she would expose him for allegedly sexually abusing her as a child if he continued speaking about her ancestry. He decided to back off from his letter-writing campaign and a month later on December 9, 1975, Buffy made her first appearance on Sesame Street.
>>122583779As a fellow NPC I also thought the most impressive part was the part that the Wikipedia article portrayed as such.
>>122579515>everyone talking about race>no music discussion whatsoeverwow nu-/mu/ truly sucks
>>122587402Her music sucks lol, it sucks twice as much knowing that the Native American vocal tricks she uses as a crutch are literally just nonsense
>>122579515I thought it was depressing that they had to expose her and destroy her legacy at the end of her life. At that point just let her get away with it no one is happier learning the truth
