ALT1:... that Earl Old Person (1929–2021), lifetime honorary Chief of the Blackfeet Nation, inadvertently broke a 1000-year tradition in 1971 when he asked the Shah of Iran to stand up? Source: [2]
ALT3: ... that Earl Old Person (1929–2021), lifetime honorary Chief of the Blackfeet Nation, was the longest-serving elected tribal official in America? Source: [3]
