He probably knew the toy was supposed to be Pocahontas. But even if he didn't, it doesn't matter. <BR/><BR/>He was obviously spoofing Native stereotypes. Whether the toy represented Pocahontas or another <A HREF="http://www.bluecorncomics.com/princess.htm" REL="nofollow">Indian princess</A>, it fit the bill.

Maybe you should tell the creators of that lil shortfilm that he got it all backwards and thats not the way pocahontas went.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
