Tucker Carlson tastes Fauxcahontas' plagiarized crab omelet recipe (video)
2017-12-24
[FOX - via LI] Among the many aspects of Elizabeth Warren’s Cherokee deception, perhaps the Pow Wow Chow cookbook stands out for its multi-layers of ridiculousness.

Elizabeth Warren is not Native American, much less Cherokee as she claimed.

Yet Warren submitted recipes to a 1984 cookbook called Pow Wow Chow identifying herself as Cherokee. The cookbook also had a recipe from her husband for Oriental Stir Fry, and he was identified as Cherokee (there’s no indication he actually is).

This would be ridiculous if it stopped there, but it didn’t.

It turned out that a number of the recipes were nearly identical to recipes published elsewhere previously. Boston Radio host Howie Carr discovered that three of Warren’s recipes appeared to be plagiarized:

And the marketing plan? Once again we find ourselves following the money:

#15  Be sure not to tell Fauxcahontas about the
"Seal of the Republic of Massachusetts" with its " Indian thereon, dressed in a shirt and moccasins, holding in his right hand a bow, and in his left hand an arrow". She'll either claim him as her long lost ancestor, or start a hysterical campaign to have that sacrilegious and appropriated image removed altogether.

#14   IIRC, the Cherokee scholar Sequoya simply "appropriated" the idea of a written / alphabetic language from the hegemonic colonizers of North America. The very idea of a written cookbook is an outrageous example of colonized thinking.

#13  1) I grew up in New Hampshire - does that make me part Algonquin?

2) The landlocked Cherokee were known the world over for their seafood recipes!

#10  I loved F-troop as well when I was a kid. But watching it recently some of the sterotypes were well over the top...

Thought this was going to be a play on Lauer eating Curry.

#8  I believe all of this 'smoke in the tee pee' could be easily dispelled.

If a man can will himself a women, why can't white bread Warren will herself a native American?

#5  Wouldn't this be the dreaded cultural appropriation?

Not to mention the mere title, "Pow Wow"? Seriously? Sounds like something from an old 50's show. Or the old F-Troop show.

#4  If there's no single malt involved, claims of being civilized are suspect...

#3  Wouldn't this be the dreaded cultural appropriation?

Gee, I wonder how the Lakota Apache Navajo etc. feel about being called uncivilized...not to mention the Maya Inca Toltec.....
