By Kliph Nesteroff

I know a lot of you white people have never seen an Indian do stand-up comedy before, joked Charlie Hill on The Richard Pryor Show in 1977. Like, for so long, you probably thought that Indians never had a sense of humor. We never thought you were too funny either.
Hill s TV debut, making him the first indigenous comedian in prime time, is one of the milestones that Kliph Nesteroff chronicles in We Had a Little Real Estate Problem, an illuminating and stereotype-busting history of Native Americans and comedy.
Nesteroff profiles Hill, who died of cancer in 2013, as well as other indigenous comedians whom Hill influenced in much the same way Freddie Prinze and Eddie Murphy inspired Latin and Black comics with their phenomenal success at a young age. ....

The famed comedian and Oneida Nation of Wisconsin tribal member took the stage for a hilarious show that would be one of his final performances. While Hill delivered a memorable set that night, setting the stage for the 1491s to do the same the following year, the story I like to share takes place in the hallway of the conference center. I had known Hill for years when we stopped to chat that day, having had the pleasure of him visiting my classrooms and theater productions at College of Menominee Nation (CMN). He was humble about his talent and gracious with his time, always excited to talk with me about his pre-fame days performing with the Native American Theatre Ensemble. ....
