Looks like #Hollywood had a #NativeAmerican actor from California! 𝗚𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗱𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲 (1885 - 1972) was a member of the La Jolla Band of the Luiseño Indians and appeared in about 20 films as a minor player.

Here are the finalists for my @LAPressClub's Native Americans in the Arts & Entertainment Award. $500 cash prize! Many entries from #NativeAmerican outlets this year. Winner announced Dec 6. #journalists #Indigenous @AllianceNative
This 16-year-old brought the house down at #AGT. #NeneRoyal stuns with her jaw-dropping performance of “Zombie” by The Cranberries. Don't miss this #heavymetal and #hardrock vocalist from #Thailand. Wow!
