Canada – Who Is Buffy Sainte- Marie?

Hmmmmm….interesting

Who is the real Buffy Sainte-Marie?

The Fifth Estate does a very deep dive into the question of Buffy Sainte- Marie’s  Canadian Indigenous heritage.  Turns out that her birth record said Beverly Jean Santamaria, who started going by the name Buffy Sainte-Marie early in her music career, was born in 1941 in Stoneham, Mass., north of Boston, to Albert and Winifred Santamaria — the couple Sainte-Marie claimed adopted her.  Mother, father and baby were all listed as white.

Worth a watch/read if you are interested.  I wonder how many others that are claiming  to have Indigenous blood flowing through their veins are lying.  Why?  Money most likely. A simple DNA test would  weed out the pretenders.
