HOW ARE PEOPLE GOING TO GET MAD AT JOHNNY DEPP FOR PLAYING A NATIVE AMERICAN IN THE LONE RANGER

YOU’RE KIDDING RIGHT

HE IS NATIVE AMERICAN

He could be full blooded and we’d still be mad about that obnoxious hot mess he’s portraying. Its not just the fact that he fabricated some blood myth. Its the fact that his portrayal is stereotypical and disrespectful and completly thoughtless.

to: OP: We are mad because we are being discriminated against. Johnny Depp said he “might” have some Native blood. That doesn’t make him Native American. Native American actors were overlooked, ignored, discriminated against. We have every right to be angry about being discriminated against. The movie also portrayed a racist stereotype (that was completely inaccurate). We have a right to be angry when we are stereotyped.
