However, it seems as though the Native American community actually honored him instead of having this grudge that Orange has now of his portrayal of a "sad, defeated Indian." Some of his character names include Crazy Horse, Chief Big Cloud, and "crying Indian." This reference helps us understand how false Indigenous stereotypes begin, how people profit from it, and how failing to reject said stereotypes can impact the group forever.
