Chief Buffalo Child Long Lance (December 1, 1890 – March 20, 1932), born Sylvester Clark Long, was an American journalist, writer and actor from Winston-Salem, North Carolina who, for a time, became internationally prominent as a spokesman for Indian causes.
He published an autobiography, purportedly based on his experience as the son of a Blackfoot chief.
He was the first presumed Native American admitted to the Explorers Club in New York City.
Sylvester's father Joe believed that his father was white and his mother Eastern Cherokee.
His mother Sallie Carson was Croatan (also known as Lumbee) and European.
After his claim as Oklahoma Cherokee or Blackfoot was found to be false, he was dropped by these same social circles to which he had gained entry.
