    Study Notes

    Negative Portrayals of Native Americans

    • Tomahawk Trail exemplifies negative portrayals of Native Americans.

    Rise of Multiculturalism

    • Artists of color transitioned from marginalized to central figures in the 20th century.
    • White artists often maintained ownership of artistic production.

    Political Goals of Minstrelsy

    • Minstrelsy aimed to reinforce white supremacy, portraying white people as superior to other races.

    Racial Stereotyping in Entertainment

    • Blackface, Redface, Brownface, Arabface, and Yellowface were used in shows and films.
    • These representations perpetuate hateful stereotypes rather than accurately depicting featured races.

    The White Aesthetic

    • The White Aesthetic represents whiteness as the default norm in artistic portrayals, erasing the impacts of race.
    • White people and experiences are often presented as normal.
    • Detecting the White Aesthetic involves identifying the absence of diversity and non-white perspectives.
    • Examples include Normal Rockwell's illustrations.
    • Rockwell's illustrations, though showcasing some people of color, frequently depict them in stereotypical, subservient, or other harmful roles, even infantilising, demonising, or exoticizing.
    • Rockwell's work was often bound by unwritten rules, often depicting people of color as servants..

    Racist Jokes & Stereotypes

    • Examples like Jeff Dunham's performances, featuring stereotypical jokes and racist representations of various races (e.g., "Sweet Daddy Dee" for Black people), demonstrate the perpetuation of harmful stereotypes.

    Whitewashing History

    • Historical whitewashing employs two methods:
      • Downplaying past injustices and replacing figures of color with white figures. (e.g., heroes in the Mississippi Burning case being misrepresented).
      • Reducing the complexity of racist issues to simplistic portrayals. (e.g., the movie "The Help," which presents a simplistic dichotomy between racist and non-racist white characters, obscuring the full spectrum of racism during that time).

    Racism as a Psychological Issue

    • The individualistic fallacy inaccurately frames racism as a prejudiced attitude, simplifying the issue into individual beliefs rather than analyzing systemic societal issues.
    • This viewpoint treats racism like a crime, with guilty individuals and innocent ones.

    Colorblind Casting

    • Colorblind casting refers to the practice of casting actors without regard for race, with the intention of avoiding overt representation. However, this approach can be problematic if it overlooks racial experiences and perpetuates stereotypes.
    • This casting practice, while intending to promote diversity, may unintentionally perpetuate stereotypes if it fails to provide adequate contextual understanding of characters' experiences and identities.
