Sacheen Littlefeather, the Apache activist who was best known for declining Marlon Brando's Best Actor Oscar in 1973 over treatment of Native Americans, died at the age of 75 on Sunday.
After Liv Ullmann and Roger Moore announced that Marlon Brando won Best Actor for his performance as Vito Corleone in "The Godfather", Littlefeather surprised audiences by walking on stage in his place.
In a speech that shocked the country at the time, the 26-year-old Apache activist began by introducing herself and explaining that she was representing the "Godfather" actor.
