  August Schellenberg, one half Mohawk and one half Swiss (Swiss German), was Native through and through.  He was also a multi-cultural person who defied the conventional Anglo stereotypes of Native Americans.  He played, and excellently so, a number of ethnic roles.  But, again, he always remained Native.  See this of mine on the generally quite good film, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee.   http://hunterbear.org/bury_my_heart_at_wounded_knee.htm  (H)




Quite a nice memory of him here. too:  http://thetyee.ca/ArtsAndCulture/2013/08/17/August-Schellenberg/
