Graham Greene is Oneida, and is, perhaps, the most recognizable Native actor in film and TV today. In this clip I found on YouTube, he offers a comment on stereotyping and appropriation.
Established in 2006, American Indians in Children's Literature (AICL) provides critical perspectives and analysis of indigenous peoples in children's and young adult books, the school curriculum, popular culture, and society. Scroll down for links to book reviews, Native media, and more.

This clip is so funny; my husband and I watched it multiple times. Very "ab-original". Graham Greene seems to be good at comedy; it's always weirdly humorous to see him on the Red Green Show.
This made my day--thanks for posting it!
Two of my favorite people say more here than any essay on the topic could.
Its sad though he'll be in New Moon..... there goes another good actor D =
I didn't know about this video! Very funny, and it's definitively against the humor-lacking Indian stereotype!
