It's done it's over, changing a product that far after the fact I'd say is stupid. There doesn't really seemt o be any point in it. If you enjoy it you should just accept that's a part of something you liked even if you don't like it. If you want to show it to someone maybe you should just explain the context of the era.
Though I don't remember enough of her to make a current assessment of whether she was a giant negative stereotype or if she was simply a black woman in an ol Cartoon which we automatically assume is racist.
Though an anon did get me thinking about how we perceive racial caricatures as racist simply because we have the preconceived notion they're inherently racist.

>Was it racist?

No. Black maids were a thing in the 40's. They're still a thing today.

>Censoring efforts

Buttblasted SJWs who whine and cry about representation but can't deal with it when it happens.

It honestly reminded me of one of my aunts.
Wears casual old lady clothing with slippers, a little heavy like a regular older lady, owns a big house with a cat. She isn't black though.

I didn't know it was supposed to be offensive until I was 15.

>>68016822
She wasn't even a maid. It's her house.

So you think any reference to modern thug black culture will be censored in the future?

>>68016609

how the fuck is it racist to show a black person as they WERE? it's like saying showing ancient Romans in togas and speaking latin is racist against modern day Italians.

I liked the disclaimer WB has on its old cartoon, it said something about how they wont change it but show it cause ignoring it worse. It was something to that effect but it was classy.

But to answer your question no its not. I dont think even blacks make a big deal about it

>>68016609
Pretty much same as you OP.
I honestly had no idea the mammy character was a racist stereotype as a kid (I'm a Yuro). Just a cartoon character who happenened to be a fat black woman working as help.
It's not like fat black women working as help never existed (or don't still exist), and her actions and reactions to what was happening were just human, never stroke me as particularly black or something.

What's peculiar is that on the other hand, Pepe the Rape is still French.

Ask any child after watching this if they got some sort of negative connotation from the woman. If she was portrayed in a manner that would change that child's perspective of a certain person, let alone a representation of people.

I find censoring it more offensive and racist, really.

>>68016609
Don't you know,black people can't have low paying jobs in media. That's racist.
They all need to be high executives,leaders or movie,music and sport stars.

When I was a kid,she was just the owner of the house for me. It's cool to be kid and to not have your mind full of prejudice,about what black people should be.

>>68016882
Of course it will. They'll say it was exploitative or something like that.

>>68016902
Nowadays some people think blacks speaking in "ebonics" in any setting is racist because they think it implies blacks are stupid.

>>68016962
but didnt the fat girl in that mexican guys trial speak ebonics?

and you do realize ooga booga bix nood is a real african language right?

>>68016980
For that matter, instead of black maids there's lots of portrayals of mexican maids in current media. So the double standard is still there.
"Sure, we can't use this minority, but we can use this other minority instead for the same effect"

No. It wasn't racist. There was nothing wrong with it.

It's just 'politically incorrect'.

People today are pussies.

I never realized that it wasn't her house. I just knew the cartoons were boring.

Don't think it really is racist but even if it were it's another question if we should censor it.

Obviously people used to be racist, misogynist, antisemite and all of that junk in the past (compared to now). Although that being the past norm doesn't make it justified today atleast we should be able to enjoy the works with those dated values in them. I mean if you go into the classic section of the library and pluck out all authors who were racist, misogynist or whatever, the selection would be quite small.

Bottom line, let's not try to deny the values that existed in the past, but make kids learn a little something from it.

It's how a lot of debate clubs work.

>>68016609

>>68017159
yeah but at what point did the tom and jerry cartoons portrayed mammy two shoes in a negative or racist light? most of the kids don't even realize she's supposed to be a maid if she even happens to be one. I'd understand if it was a cartoon like that one when Bugs Bunny plays blackface.

>>68017236
but the debate clubs of our country actually tells you to speak clearly
What the fuck is happening with your education system america

>>68017266

I don't think it's a widely spread thing.

My school didn't even have a debate club. It had academic clubs, a book club, and other things like that though.

>>68017210
link?

When I was a kid, I didn't see anything wrong with her, didn't mind the skin color or the way she talked tbh.

And I even thought she was a dog for some reason.

The redubbing bothered me, but not as much as it sounded like they just grabbed the first woman they could find off the street and stuck her in the recording booth. It sounded like she was reading off a cue card at a 2nd grade level.

>>68017114
That short is also fucking great.
Great music, animation and humor. It's a shame people will focus on the Black people caricatures when EVERYONE had goofy caricatures and stereotypes in cartoons from the 40/50s.

It is pretty racist but just throw up the disclaimer that they put on the DVDs and don't change it.

>>68017411
I agree with this, and I think the image included is hilarious.

If you want to be sensitive about the material, include a disclaimer explaining that the cartoon is a product of its time. I think Warner Bros. did this for their questionable cartoons.

>>68016844
It's not supposed to be offensive. It's supposed to be entertaining. Nobody made Tom and Jerry with the thought "I'm going to try to piss people off by putting a caricature of a black stereotype in this cartoon." They said "Let's see, who do I make Tom's owner? Let's go with a standard black mammy- they're funny when they're threatening."

Soon, black people will never appear in anything. Ever. Because they're all censored out because everyone complains about how they're portrayed.

I grew up watching her. She was a figure of authority, not a slave in my childhood eyes. One they sometimes made fun of, but in 'exactly' the same way they'd make an upstart rich white businessman look foolish in these things.

If you remove all "stereotypical" behavior, you'll have black people who behave exactly like whites, and people will complain that aspects of their unique culture and race identity aren't being properly represented. Doesn't matter if the traits removed are "negative" or "positive" you'll get people who complain that they're generic and non unique now.

If you leave them with their more unique cultural aspects, you'll have people who complain and censor that too, regardless of if those things are personally positive aspects for the character or not. (An otherwise moral upright black man who speaks with any sort of ebonics, or hell sometimes even an African accent).

If you cut them out entirely, you'll have people complain they're then not represented on TV at all. Is that the end they want? Because if they keep doing this, that's what they'll get.

It just needs to stop.

>>68017208
That made me crack up so fucking much.

I'm confused now: Does Mammy just work in the same house as Tom as a maid or is that her own house? I'll believe she's someone's help but I thought the house was hers. I kind of thought that place she was always going was to work for someone.

>>68017208
I laughed

>>68016870
this, I don't get why everyone goes was this racist? when it's clear that's her house, hell it even looks like she's rich I remember on one of the old episodes she goes to a dinner on town or something and she was pretty well dressed

>>68017080
>cast french maids

>>68017951
I always thought it was her house because we never saw anybody else there! I don't think she mentioned any homeowners either.

>>68016959
It sort of is but that doesn't mean it has to be censored. Eventually you get to a point where you realize the main nonthug black representation in media are the Cosbys and Morgan Freeman the magical negro and go wtf.

Wait, Tom's owner was black (that's not a good sentence)?

>>68016609
What was racist about her? and surely dubbing would be a quicker fixbore

Calling it racist is not just a product of modern PC because Mammy was already being censored from TV in the '60s (they reanimated her and redubbed her to be white and Irish).

It's not malicious and it doesn't mean AMERICA WAS A TERRIBLE PLACE back then, it's just kind of a hacky stereotype of the way black people talked, and by the '50s there was already pressure on movies and TV to get away from that stereotype (you still had black maid characters, of course, but they didn't talk quite so broad). I don't think it's going to corrupt our children to see a cartoon with her.

I always thought she was meant to be a homage to the maid from Gone with the Wind.

Not really offensive, just a caricature. And of course, she owned the house herself and seemed p rich.

He had different owners depending on the episode.

>>68018739
It's the Mammy stereotype. It was a popular one back in the old old days because it was a way of making black people seem quaint and harmless as opposed to scary animalistic ones. Mammy is dumb but well-meaning, she's subservient and likes keeping house and looking after white kids.

No. In fact, getting in a bitchfit about harmless stereotypes is racist, since you are suggesting there is something wrong with the culture, when it obviously exists.

Irish stereotypes weren't as un-PC in the '60s as black stereotypes were.

Different stereotypes go out of style at different times. You could still do the most outrageous Asian stereotypes in the '80s in comics and movies, 30 years after you'd get in trouble for that kind of stereotyping of black characters.

The stereotypical Gypsy character is a sterotype who only recently started to go out of fashion.

And of course some stereotypes become un-PC and then become PC again.

"In 1942, during the height of anti-Japanese sentiment during World War II, I was approached in Hollywood by the cast of an all-black musical off-broadway production called Jump For Joy while they were doing some special performances in Los Angeles. They asked me why there weren't any Warner's cartoons with black characters and I didn't have any good answer for that question. So we sat down together and came up with a parody of Disney's "Snow White" and "Coal Black" was the result. They did all the voices for that cartoon, even though Mel Blanc's contract with Warners gave him sole voice credit for all Warners cartoons by then. There was nothing racist or disrespectful toward blacks intended in that film at all, nor in Tin Pan Alley Cats which is just a parody of jazz piano great Fats Waller, who was always hamming into the camera during his musical films. Everybody, including blacks had a good time when these cartoons first came out. All the controversy about these two cartoons has developed in later years merely because of changing attitudes toward black civil rights that have happened since then."

It's a fantastic short and Bob Clampett was a great guy. But all of that is overshadowed because of changing ideas of political correctness. What a shame.

In the old days it was minorities who got offended. They led the charge against blackface and other stereotypes that white people were so used to, they didn't even realize they were offensive to anybody.

But that's when these films were new. Once they were old, yeah, it's probably mostly white people who get upset about them. Not to say that no Indians get upset about the way they were portrayed in old Westerns, etc., but for most people the priority is worrying about stuff that's on right now, and reflects how a group is thought of today. Yelling about the attitudes of 50 or 100 or 200 years ago is something you do in college.

>What the fuck is happening with your education system america

A lot of things.

Politically-motivated armchair activists insist on teaching children the importance of hating their country and being afraid of offending people's feelings.

Lowering standards (because standards are racist) has DESTROYED America's youthful prospects. My brother's a teacher, he sees it every day. What's worse is teachers are prevented from raising the bar or holding their children accountable due to above bureaucratic hell.

There's way too much emphasis on emotional health. It's comical. You can't say "No, 2+2 does not equal 5" any more. You have to ask the kid "Hmm, now how did you get there? Walk me through your thought process" or take them aside after class and gently explain why 2+2 does not equal 5.

>"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be "cured" against one's will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals."

4chan treats you like scum that needs to take responsibility for itself, because you could do better even if you probably won't.

tumblr treats you like scum who need to be administered like violent criminals - administered by them.

it was her house. There was an episode where she went out to play cards with her friends and Tom held a big party at the house. Jerry called her on the phone, she heard the racket, and she came running home and beat the shit out of Tom.

I liked the old lady. She was a mammy stereotype, but not exactly a mean spirited one.

She actually reminded me of both my grandmothers.

-from South

Gordon L. Harwell, an entrepreneur who had supplied rice to the armed forces in World War II, chose the name Uncle Ben’s as a means to expand his marketing efforts to the general public.[12] "Uncle" was a common appellation used in the Southern United States to refer to older male Black slaves or servants.[13]

That's a good point. Woman clearly has her own shit together if her biggest problem is a mouse, what's wrong with a black woman having her own agency? SJW's are misogynist.

Mildly racist in that it was a stereotype, but didn't seem particularly harmful or offensive. Anyone who would be offended by her is just being, for lack of a lazier term, triggered.

The outrage industry relies on instances of "white racism" to keep itself going

It pounds a few cases of whites killing blacks whether justified or not and ignores the thousands of deaths in the ghetto because those are just statistics

With outrage they push a narrative and get ratings which fuels American media because American news media relies on private investment to keep going

The result of such cases in academia adds fuel to student faggotry and retarded attempts to relive the 1960s and useless professors of multicultural studies being able to justify their worthless existence by claiming racism is still pervasive in society

Occasionally such professors will point out the existence of the private prison industry as an example of racism. Students never bother to protest this as it isn't actually trendy to do so and thus the prison industry also makes big bucks. In a way the existence of that industry helps keep SJW academia alive.

Africans don't usually have a choice in the things which ruin their countries, like Slavic people or Latin Americans

In contrast chicanos in LA and Poles in the UK have a choice to not be useless gangsters but choose to be violent and stupid anyway, resulting in the law cracking down on them and them complaining "The Man" is out to get them

It's easier for SJWs to complain about what's been instead of what is because then they can feel like they won something.

I'm just curious.
Is showing any instance of racism just a part of outrage industry? I can understand if you're talking about certain shit where a white guy kills a black guy and they just read racist motives into it. But was this legitimately a case where a black dude got lynched for dating a white chick?

>>68017053

Probably not. That guy is trying very hard not to jst say "liberal media" or some variation thereof.

Day laborer Mexican seems to be okay. No one give a fuck about them, not even regular mexicans.

>>68022258
No, because this has only happened here and not in the real world. Doesn't matter how good you are at hiding your powerlevel; if you become desensitized to using hurtful words like "nigger" and "faggot" on the internet you're more likely to use them in real life, which may lead to unpleasant scenarios since well-adjusted people have very, very little patience for edgelords.

/pol/ itself is the perfect example of the outrage culture they claim to hate.

>>68030903
There was a Bosnian man beaten to death for being white in St. Louis recently also

The outrage industry is not concerned about that, yet the lynching of said black man will likely become major news very soon to pile on top of Tamir Rice, Eric Garner and that fat black guy who attacked a cop

Both are instances of racism, but the outrage industry is concerned with the narrative of "white racists, black victims- Jim Crow lives!" because it sells sells sells

In a world that was actually just neither Trayvon nor that guy in Ferguson would be news and all instances of racial hatred would be equally condemned

Instead the media plays it for ratings- and if the blacks riot because of media sensationalism then those are even more ratings! And if the KKK does a march? Then even more ratings!

Rile people up, get them to be stupid, suppress facts which get in the way of people's feelings and you get outrage which then translates into people constantly tuning in every day to see what they need to get angry about- but of course this outrage tends to be "the good kind" which allows people to feel self-righteous.

>>68031020
The thing is, he's not wrong. The media on both sides of the aisle does sensationalize black/white crime. But he has to be an edgy extremist teen that thinks he has it all figured out and can't realize that both sides have a point.

The reason no one reports on black on black crime is because there's no white people to give it a human interest angle. (White on White crime gets framed as "gun control" or "women's rights" or some other angle.). it's the fault of the 24 hour news cycle making mountains of of molehills, and making everyone aggro for views. All media and academia, liberal, conservative, or otherwise, needs to monetize and so to do that they go after their bases and report on the same things as viewed through different polarized lenses.

>>68030994

Actually, most people nowadays don't care about the word. Unless the person saying it is actually being racist, even then, they're more upset at someone acting so archaic and in the past more so than a word that has lost a lot of its former bite.

Yeah Slowpoke Rodriguez was friggin awesome. He's in a show all about how fast Speedy is and he subverts everything and he carried a gun. The only people who are offended by him are white people and latinos that are told to be offended by white people.

As a Mexican I remember thinking I was black because in school all you would hear about was MLK and the civil right's movement. Then growing up, you'd hear about how a show was showing diversity by adding a black character. Then as I got older I learned that I was something else and that black people hated Mexicans and all the shit I learned in school was kind of one sided and the real world isn't black and white.

It's funny once you learn about Cinco De Mayo's history, it's not even a Mexican (as in Mexico) celebration. It was started in California to show solidarity with the Union during the Civil War. Since Mexico had outlawed slavery prior to the Spanish American war and the Treaty of Guadalupe. I just laugh when I see third gen Mexican's yelling viva la mexico fuck america on Cinco De Mayo, I'm just like, this was actually a way of integrating the newly "acquired" Mexican's into the American culture.

I don't get what you're saying.
Racism was somehow LESS terrible for black people in the 30s? That since racism was so widespread, this cartoon had much more potential to do evil stuff - and it's somehow LESS bad?
What the fuck are you talking about?

Or maybe move on, remove nostalgia glasses and realize that just because you liked something as a child it's not immune from criticism.

Fun facts!

While there is no Aunt Jemima, there is a Nancy Green. She was hired to offer her likeness to Aunt Jemima products, which were named after a song from a minstrel show.

Nancy Green was born into slavery before being emancipated and hired. She traveled around the country promoting Aunt Jemima products and telling stories. She was known for her amicable personality and her storytelling talent.

This made her one of the most financially successful African-Americans at the time and the money she received allowed her to also become a philanthropist. She donated to and engaged in many anti-poverty campaigns.

>>68032126
>More potential to do evil stuff

How in the fuck does this character do anything evil?

Especially when there have been plenty of people in the world who talk and behave so similarly to her.

There was racism in the 1930s. This character, however, isn't racist. There's nothing racist about it. It harms no one.

>>68032126

Why shouldn't black people who behave like that get equal representation? Isn't that discrimination?

Why should I not be allowed in media just because I speak a little 'hood'?

Should Mr. Chi City be banned from Youtube? Is he too real for you?

I don't think many people know much about pandas but honestly good riddance

they evolved by what could be considered a fluke

they don't do anything

they serve no purpose in nature

no natural predators because of where they evolved

all they fucking do is eat bamboo and die

the money and effort going to keep pandas alive could go into other species that deserve and need it much more

In truth, BET is shit on a lot by the black community (the educated ones, anyway) because it continuously produced shows and promoted music videos that showcased the worst facet of African American culture and the channel degraded blacks in general. BET was pretty much responsible for helping to create this massive sinkhole within the community where blacks are divided among themselves.

The Boondocks highlighted this fact. Huey represents an educated black person, while Riley represents the byproduct of the BET/NWA era. He's arguably the funniest character on the show, but if you look through the facade, you'll realize that Riley is a sad excuse for a black kid. Black BET execs essentially sold their own race out to make money.

I mean, notice how you think that shit is representative of the culture; it isn't. It is a subset of african american culture that just so happens to be very large right now. Look at several "black" shows from the late 80s to mid 90s. They're vastly different.

Fresh prince of bel air, cosby show, a different world, Martin, etc -- these shows weren't caricatures of black people and actively condemned negative stereotypes. They were also unbelievably hilarious. BET was a contributing factor that destroyed that ideal.

Now you have a generation of black kids who think BET was/is the best representation of black people and they aspire to be like that. Seriously, it's fucked up. Why do you think every African/Islander FOB distances themselves from African Americans? Culturally, they're considered a fucking disgrace.

>>68033196
>Fresh prince of bel air, cosby show, a different world, Martin, etc -- these shows weren't caricatures of black people and actively condemned negative stereotypes.

They were also widely criticized as preachy, overly "safe", and very distant from the average lived black experience.

>>68033196
I am going to be spectacularly disappointed when your post inevitably falls on deaf ears.

BET is as representative of black people as CMT or MTV are of white people.

>>68033196
>he worst facet of African American culture

In their opinion. Which I guess is more important than most black people's because they're educated and 'elite'.

>and the channel degraded blacks in general

Content produced by blacks is just so degrading to blacks, huh?

>massive sinkhole within the community where blacks are divided among themselves.

Thanks to the elitists who hated the channel for not being up to their subjective standards.

>Hey, let's have a channel with black content produced by actual black people!
>What? No. Stop. That is not the right content. Let's change it to black content produced by the RIGHT black people.

>>68033254

So, accurate, if by "white people" we're referring to the distinct ethnic group that is "southern whites"?

>>68033233
For any show, you'll always have criticisms and detractors who want the status quo to be met. Blacks genuinely have a crab in a barrel mentality, the lot of them; they'd rather see you fail with them than succeed without them. This isn't new, either. Many hip hop artists have spoken about this fact in the black community that they're willing to tear one another down for the sake of watching them fail.

Those collection of shows are now constantly missed by black people of today and they always reminisce about them. You don't see that facet of black culture being cultivated or shown anymore. Everyone fulfills a stereotype on shows nowadays.

>>68033266

Sir, I am a southern white and I find that offensive.

>>68033266
Accurate so long as we pretend the the distinct group is the entirety, ignore any and all evidence to the contrary, and actively discourage even the discussion that maybe shit ain't reflective of reality, sure.

If I suggest that all white people are Jersey Shore rejects or Jeff Foxworthy punchlines, that's stupid. But the inverse isn't for some reasons that are beyond me.
