I'm not offended by racial or ethnic stereotypes in cartoons (to make this clear, I am NOT condoning bigotry and racism) it's just that I have pretty thick skin So I'm not overly angry, but still sensible enough to realize the wrongdoings of these cartoons. As much as I love watching and researching cartoons from the 30s and 40s, I can't deny that there were some that don't sit right by today's standards, and this could definitely be one of them.

[@exoticsamba492]

Well not everyone has thick skin. It’s okay to be soft & sensitive. No one is obligated to suffer just to “prove they have thick skin”. You’re just gaslighting.

You do realize that the writers and creators had families who fought in the civil war. Meaning it was a different time a different type of people. My grandfather hated bigotry of any kind. Though he wasn't a man known for his kindness. I wrote him a letter when he was in a foreign country getting rich. When he arrived for Christmas holiday at our home he had the letter with a red pen showing me where all the grammar was poorly used. Words like Theirs They're or there's especially. Where periods went where to use commas or not talking like Sam Kinison without the love. I would say he was kind to strangers but not to family members. A bigot he wasn't but he wasn't a kind man to family. My dad's dad wasn't like that he showed love to everyone and didn't like bigotry against blacks. But although born before the twentieth century in Norway they had terms for blacks over there but nobody on that side of the family told me what that was or how bad or ignorant it was.

Just look at what fox has been doing with with the Simpsons and especially what what Disney has been doing in their attack on menopicular the claims by Bob Iger that they're not involved in a cultural War, are nothing but bullshit.

Jasper Heinrichs racism will forever live on. That's how the world works.

[@polifantasmaggl8560]

The black characters don't even look like people. Its terrible to think that white people back then thought of them as creatures and less of a human...

[@soupythecat]

When I was little I never knew the caricatures were supposed to be black people. Just figured they were weird humanoid cartoon creatures. Blew my mind as an adult when I rewatched these and realized they were super offensive and I had no idea.

[@polifantasmaggl8560]

soupythecat same. I thought they were just animal like characters for a long time

[@electricmastro]

I recall there were evolutionary ideas made hundreds of years ago regarding indigenous/African peoples being "on a lower evolutionary level" compared to the white man, using examples such as how the white man built buildings while the Africans did not.

[@user-wj7me6xh7q]

Well shit, if you use your imagine you could pretty much imagine that when slave traffickers/purchasers turned up on the shores of the west african kingdoms to buy the criminals and captured and enslaved tribal villagers from the barracks of the west african kingdoms, that those slaves they bought would probably have appeared pretty animalistic, seeing as they didn't speak english or any european language yet or know anything beyond their simple tribal customs. I mean, even today i guarantee if we took you and dropped you off in the middle of a remote isolated tribe like the sentinel islanders they would probably kill you and eat you, see why they saw them as less then human? Use your brain.

[@loercayt6146]

Looks human but they just exaggerate the features a lot

[@alejadgaf8527]

Idk why in racist depictions of black people they have white lips. Their lips aren't white. Also in the second cartoon are the pretty women supposed to be white or light skinned?? So many questions😂

[@nymphetangelic4709]

I think light skinned girls because when they started singing they talked about living in Harlem

[@Harmonious028]

It comes from black face in order to show that black people have big lips.

[@calmdownjamal8951]

It originates with the blackface look

[@dedmemeno.4203]

Actually it's because they had black mouths. so they did that so you could see their mouths when they speak

[@imrusty5611]

I'm so white that I can't even tan without getting burned like a vampire and this shit pisses me off. To see how hatred can settle within the heart so easily and blind the average man into submission. To see how something as benine as the color of your skin can determine another human's outlook on you. It's primitive. It's pathetic. It's just wrong. The only thing that anyone should judge their fellow man by is their actions.

[@user-wj7me6xh7q]

A racist cartoon would be one that tries so hard to avoid anything that could be construed as racist, why is that racist? Because in their mind they already thought all these things were racist, so they tried to get rid of them, the racism is in their own mind.

I’m The Bible all of Deuteronmy 28 King James Version says the real Jews are black people While the white Jews are Fake Jews Deuteronmy 28 King James Version says the curses Jews will go through and the curses are Jews going into slavery on ships aka what only blacks wen through it also says Jews will kill their own race everyday only black people kill their same race everyday that’s what we are known for it also said Jew father will LEAVE THEIR SONS only blacks leave their sons that’s what we are known for it also said Jews will be in a FIELD AKA SLAVE FIELD So those curses only happened to black people meaning black people are the real Jews and God made us go into slavery because we didn’t follow his commandments that’s why slavery and Jim Crow and kkk and these racist cartoons happened to us But if we follow the commandments we won’t be oppressed anymore and we will slave the racist whites

These are pretty uncomfortable to watch, just because of how painfully overtly racist they are. How did anyone ever think this was ok?

[@gobrila]

Well back then this was ok and entertaining to people

[@EriBerry737]

Ok so this was NEVER ok. People may have thought this was acceptable...but it was not.

[@electricmastro]

They THOUGHT it was ok. Perhaps not all cartoons intended to discriminate and/or claim superiority against black people, but they thought it was entertaining and didn't take the consrquences of it seriously enough.

[@metalbelles3662]

What's painful it's all the negative comments about old cute cartoons.

[@evangeliaiscoolscrewu]

That’s 1930s cartoons for you

[@John-uw2je]

The definition of racism is, "prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior." People back then thought black people were lesser, that they were lazy poor and ugly. They were wrong, but too ignorant to think it was wrong. This by definition of the word racism is racist.
