![["The text is a series of letters written by H.E. Choc Wilkes, a member of the Choctaw Tribe, to various individuals and organizations advocating for better portrayal of American Indians in motion pictures. Wilkes seeks support for the establishment of an Indian Board of Review to oversee the depiction of Indians in films and ensure accuracy and respect. The letters also mention the lack of consideration given to Native Americans by the Motion Picture Association and Hollywood, and request equal treatment for the Indian community. Congressman Carl Albert expresses support for Wilkes' efforts and willingness to take action on the issue."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/James%20R.%20Jones%20Collection/James%20R.%20Jones%20Departmental%20Series,%201968-1986/CAC_CC_001_4_6_90_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20Five%20Civilized%20Tribes,%201949/Thumbnails/CACC_CC_001_4_6_90_0002_thumbnail.jpg "Crusade for Fair Representation of American Indians in Hollywood: A Correspondence Collection from 1949")
