    Hattie was criticized for always accepting roles as a maid/hired help in films rather than fighting for the cause. Her response was at least she was getting paid more for playing a maid than actually being a maid.

      I think people should be aware Littlefeather was not Native-American. While she spoke up for rights she was lying about her ethnicity. Look on her wiki it explains everything including her mental health. She had a history of lying about many things.
      short excerpt:
      Littlefeather repeatedly claimed that her father had White Mountain Apache and Yaqui ancestry.[9][11] However, her sisters, as well as researchers who have looked into the claim, confirm that he was of Spanish-Mexican ancestry with no known ancestors who had a tribal identity in Mexico, and he had no connection to the Yaqui or White Mountain Apache tribes of Arizona.

      ​@realbtch1014 I wouldn't say all that. She just goes for Oscar worthy films all the time. If your a director trying to get a Oscar it's best to get famous actors for the publicity . She doesn't really do that many films. As she is getting older she is still picking roles that suit her age as well as story. Look at Daniel day Lewis. He does less films then any actor yet when he pops up. He always wins a Oscar. People think the best actors are the ones that give the best performance. This is far from true. The best actors are the best book readers. They know a good script because they probably read the book or something like it. Some go as far as producing the films themselves. Comedians tend to pick bad films simply because they don't read the script in detail or for the money. Some actors are willing to starve on the street a little longer for the right opportunity. Actors that work in theater tend to get better opportunities due to their success on the stage. Denzel for example wouldn't kiss a white women on film in fear of losing his black female demographic. This was around when his career first started and he made those decisions based on his establishment in theatre as well as film. Denzel thrive in Hollywood cause he didn't bend to the will of Hollywood due to his same respect and love for theater. He said if he didn't make it in Hollywood he would probably still be doing theatre full time
