Censorship

[edit]

Initially, Just Squaw was rejected in its entirety by the Kansas Board of Review, but was reviewed again a month later where it passed with cuts. The intertitles removed said "She's just squaw and fair game" and "Your city dude won't have all the sweets," and the scenes removed were a fight between Snake Le Gal and The Half-Breed and the struggle between Fawn and Snake.[2]
