[QUOTE]Originally posted by Kem-Au: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by alTakruri: [b] Yeah, good ole Black Pete. Werent some of the black people of the Netherlands up in arms because they felt Black Pete was a negative stereotype? It seems that blacks who are minorities are ashamed of black images that arent just black overed copies of their white hosts. Take the original Aunt Jemima icon that Black Americans protested out of existence, while Black Caribbeans who are the majority population in their island countries admire the self same icon of the black woman in calico dress and headwrap which is a prominent feature in their plastic and textile arts like cookie jars and dolls for instance. [/b][/QUOTE] Not sure what you mean here? The origianal Aunt Jemima, Uncle ben, etc were nothing to be proud of, nor are the modern ones. They were simply representations of the mammy and the coon, like Florida Evans from Good Times or just about anyone from What's Happening. Their facial features were extremely racist, though they look more like real people today. Are you saying that blacks who are minorities want to see blacks that are just copies of their white hosts? Please clarify. [/QB][/QUOTE]
