As a white woman and a musician growing up in the states who was raised on my mother’s Joni Mitchell records, it’s shameful I had never heard of Buffy. Not only is she one of the greatest musicians and songwriters of our time, but she is responsible for so many other white stars’ careers (including of course, Joni’s). How white people in the industry hid her labor as an indigenous woman is abhorrent but not shocking. How many times have I belted “Up where we belong” ignorant to the woman who wrote its melody?! Anyone who loves music needs to listen to this podcast!
Not Indigenous

Buffy is not indigenous but a cultural appropriator who fooled everyone. She should divest herself of all the wealth she amassed while posing as indigenous
Buffy!!!!
