Haag 1 Hunter Hayden Haag Prof. Watkins History of Animations 10 February 2019 Cartoons: Stereotypes or Just Characters? Stereotypes are defined as a widely held but fixed and oversimplified image or the idea of a particular type of person or thing. The history of racial stereotypes in older cartoons is extremely prominent. Stereotypes were exploited by animators in order to portray a certain type of person without needing an abundant amount of description of who they were; they are very easily interpreted. Without the use of some stereotypes, the animators would need a rather large explanation of the characters background. It is basically a useful trick they use to get the audience familiar with the character almost instantly. That being said, more often than not, a lot of the stereotypes are on the controversial side. But no matter how wrong they are, they are an important part of the history of animation. They must not be judged by today's standards. What we need to do is try to understand the time in which they were made. One of the most recognizable uses of a racial stereotype in older cartoons is the crows in “Dumbo”. Many believe that the crows are very obvious “black” stereotypes. Speaking in very thick accents and one preaching a sermon, which is believed by some to be racial stereotypes. The fact that the head crow was voiced by a white man did not help the fact that many people were offended by it. However, many think that everybody was overreacting about the crows. Haag 2 According to them, the crows were some of the best characters in the movie, if not the best part of it. One thought is that the crows are simply black characters, not black stereotypes. See Figure ​ 1: My New Caricatures: It is an interesting thought on stereotypes overall. How can we really tell the difference between character portrayal and racial stereotypes? Well, in dumbo, The crow characters do not seem very off-putting or mean. They just seem friendly and fun as characters. So I do not believe it should be considered racist since they are perhaps just over-the-top characters. That being said there are plenty of other examples of “black” stereotypes in older cartoons. For an example, see Figure 2: “Scrub me Mamma with a Boogie Beat.” : ​ This is an excellent example of how not to do a character. There is a distinct difference from this compared to the crows of “Dumbo.” As you compare the two animations you can tell that one is simply more sophisticated than the other. When you watch “Dumbo,” you feel something good in the character design and personality about seeing these very Haag 3 enthusiastic crows. However, when you see “Scrub me Mamma with a Boogie Beat,” the characters don't seem relatable to anybody, they have almost no personality, they are based purely on stereotypes, and have almost no character design at all. They are just bad characters. You can tell that the people who made it either were being discriminatory or had no idea what they were animating race-wise. Though I would still argue it is the former of those choices. Animations like these are with utmost certainty racist. The use of “Blackface” in this cartoon just feels bad to watch. There are many types of people that can be stereotyped. One of the other most common stereotypes is the “hick” or “hillbilly” stereotypes. Many of the stereotypes include being incredibly undereducated, toothless, only wear overalls, and all drink moonshine. See Figure 3: ​ The First Mountain Dew Commercial This image is from the very first Mountain Dew commercial. You can clearly see that he has one tooth and the soda is in the shape of a moonshine bottle. When you watch the commercial, it is much easier to understand the stereotypes as many of the “hillbillies” are chasing after an attractive girl and hollering with a very thick accent. This commercial even breaks the cultural stereotype and moves on to gender stereotypes as each of the men are willing to do anything to get this girl like wild hound dogs. However, the real question is, are these offensive stereotypes? Or just over-exaggerated character design? I think it Haag 4 all depends on how we as a society perceive them. I do not think it is necessarily racist. I do think they are very fun exciting characters, and since this is just a quick commercial; you can tell that they are using the generalization of a “hillbilly” to their advantage. It lets you know everything about the commercials characters immediately. Another common stereotype that was commonly used in older cartoons was an Asian stereotype. Which usually was portrayed as having, large buck teeth, extremely squinted eyes, round glasses, big ears, and an unintelligible Asian accent. Most of the cartoons that had hard Asian stereotypes were during the 1940s at the time of World War II. See Figure 4: Tokio Jokio ​ This was a Looney Tune cartoon in 1943 in the middle of World War II. Since it was made in the middle of the dispute between Japan and The United States, there is absolutely no other reason to make these outrageous stereotypes than to make fun of Japanese people and promote propaganda. This is a great example of a cartoon with no excuses for why they used all of these terrible stereotypes. It served no other purpose than to produce hate, which is inexcusable in any circumstance. Looney Toons seem to be a very bustling place when it comes to stereotypes and things that offend people. Even so that they have something called the “Censored Eleven.” Which is a collection of old Looney Tunes and Merrie Melody cartoons that were restricted from broadcasting by the United Artists Corporation in 1968. These cartoons were pulled from broadcasting because of ethnic stereotypes that were deemed too offensive for usual audiences. Haag 5 This doesn't mean there aren't any more of their cartoons that could be deemed offensive, but these are really bottom of the barrel. In fact, on the “Looney Tunes Golden Collection” DVD box set and some other of their older cartoons, there is an introduction card explaining the possibly offensive content of the cartoons. See ​ Figure 5: Looney Tunes racism disclaimer This disclaimer is a brilliant example of how to treat something of this nature. Just the last line, “ Because to do otherwise would be the same as claiming these prejudices never existed.” This is an amazing line in and of itself. We know that some older cartoons are not easy to watch from some of the content that they can hold. However, we cannot forget that they exist. It is still obvious that there are many animations today that have stereotypes. Most of them, however, are much more subtle and I doubt that they are being used to promote racism or anything likewise. Today's cartoons are incredibly more diverse than anything in the past. They use some generalizations, yes, but, they are used in such a way that shows to the audience the experiences the characters have felt. It is quite odd seeing stereotypes used in a “positive” way, but I think if the people making them know what they're doing, it can open up a wide world of character that many people can relate to without feeling offended or feeling like they are bashing their culture. Haag 6 There are many things that we as artists must know. For artists, certain stereotypes can help make sense of the character and the world that they live in. It can be used in order to make a lot of information much more concise and presentable. It can help drive a story and make the audience immediately know who the character is and begin relating to them. All of that being said, using generalization like stereotypes can be extremely dangerous. It requires something that is very hard to make a stereotype appropriate. So working out the ways to use generalizations are very tricky and delicate situations. Most of the examples I have shown were terrible caricatures of some peoples culture. The historical misuse of the races and cultures are almost unforgivable and should never be recreated. However, we cannot just throw away the idea of using a generalization just because some people think that any generalization is bad.

The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body.

    Starting with Snow White: Disney’S Folkloric Impact and the Transformation of the American Fairy Tale

    STARTING WITH SNOW WHITE: DISNEY’S FOLKLORIC IMPACT AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE AMERICAN FAIRY TALE A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Dana M. DiLullo Gehling May 2018 Examining Committee Members: Miles Orvell, Advisory Chair, English & American Studies James Salazar, English Sue-Im Lee, English Paul Swann, External Member, Film & Media Arts © Copyright 2018 by Dana M. DiLullo Gehling All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT Since the late 1960s and early 1970s, critical scholarship concerning the fairy tale genre has done much to address the social, historical, cultural, and national motivations behind transformations of the fairy tale from a European starting point. However, the fairy tale’s development in the United States, including both its media-based adaptations and literary extensions, has been given limited attention. While the significance of Walt Disney’s animated films to the American fairy tale tradition has been addressed (by literary and film scholars alike), an interdisciplinary study drawing together Disney’s European and early twentieth century precursors (from literature, stage, and film); his own influential, modern debut; respondent literary and animated work of his immediate successors; and postmodern and twenty-first century adaptations has not been done. By examining the trajectory of a single tale, Snow White (or for Disney, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs), this dissertation aims to acknowledge the scholarly attention given to Disney’s animated films, while further examining attributes which I suggest have enabled Disney to have a “folkloric impact” on the fairy tale genre in the United States.

C 2015 Estéticas Vitales. Este proyecto Artístico se orienta hacia la búsqueda de un nuevo lugar de enunciación de la serie animada Looney Tunes en la actualidad y la intrínseca relación de sus personajes con algunas comunidades de la ciudad de Bogotá. Producido hace siete décadas, este audiovisual, originado a partir de un contexto histórico específico, ahora recibe atención de manera distinta por parte de unos sujetos no necesariamente identificados con los objetivos iniciales de sus creadores. En el marco de esta investigación se abordará la serie transmitida durante los años noventa, época en donde se empezaron a asimilar los personajes animados de esta serie en la vida cotidiana generando su readaptación. Esta situación los lleva a ser partícipes de múltiples situaciones en donde se apela a la necesidad de expresión de cada usuario, bien sea positiva o negativa. En el escenario de las barriadas de Bogotá es donde transcurre esta dinámica. En específico en las periferias de la ciudad, los límites entre Bogotá y Soacha, un sector en el cual he convivido durante dieciséis años, y donde he podido identificar que la presencia de lo marginal es diferente, pues se ha adaptado y agrupado alrededor de La Hora Warner. Buscando demostrar que el uso de estos dibujos animados, ahora convertidos en iconos de suma importancia para la construcción de códigos en estos grupos, que les han posibilitado la convivencia y el accionar como población, que ha asumido su papel y que se exhiben a través de múltiples plataformas, muestran un mundo cargado de valores infantiles y adversidad pero siempre enaltecidos a través de la indumentaria de los Looney Tunes.

I saw the aftermath of the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Malcolm X and I couldn’t understand why people who looked like me had been treated in this manner. Then the 1970’s arrived and brought an explosion of color to Saturday Morning cartoons. As a pre-teen, I could see positive Black characters that looked like me and real people that I admired, like the Jackson Five and The Harlem Globetrotters. I was glued to the television. I couldn’t wait to see these animated characters fill the small screen. These cartoons changed my life...filling me with pride and self esteem. They brought adventure, mayhem and fun to a generation of Black children. Forty years later, my perspective on these cartoons is a little different. Besides being an integral part of Black children’s lives, these cartoons also benefited white children and the broader society as a whole. A number of these cartoons addressed issues like cultural differences, racism and multiculturalism.

  • Animating Race

    Animating Race

    Chapter 4 Animating Racism In February 1940, cartoon gurus William Hanna and Joseph Barbera intro- duced one of the most famous duos in animation history. In “Puss Gets the Boot,” the world met Tom Cat and Jerry Mouse for the first time.1 Known as Jasper and Jinx in the premiere episode, generations of children sub- sequently grew to know these characters as Tom and Jerry. The Tom and Jerry series became a national, and global, phenomenon, with hundreds of shorts, myriad series spinoffs, and nearly a dozen full-length feature films produced in the half century after its premiere. In that very first short in 1940, audiences also saw for the first time an unnamed character. She was a large, dark-skinned black woman who spoke in a vernacular dialect that was overlaid with a thick southern accent. That unnamed character also wore brightly colored clothing and was usually only visible from the waist down. This unnamed character became known as “Mammy Two Shoes,” a “galumphing black domestic.”2 Mammy Two Shoes was typically seen only from the waist down, was buffoonish in nature, and was, in essence, an ani- mated version of a black-blackface representation of the popular Mammy archetype.3 It has become cliché to note that the “golden age” of cartoon produc- tion between the 1920s and late 1960s, so characterized because of the addition of sound to animation, also produced the most racist and sexist depictions of people of color in cartoon history. Mammy Two Shoes was a product of this golden age. She was joined by a host of other racialized and racist characters, some of whom existed during the silent era and received new life with the advent of sound.

    FEMININITY, CENSORSHIP, AND MORE IN TEX AVERY CARTOONS. Pierre Floquet Universite Bordeaux, Francia. Enseña Inglés y es Profesor Asociado de la Universite Bordeaux (Francia). Escribió su Tesis de Doctorado en el año 1996 sobre lingüística aplicada al cine, focalizando en el lenguaje cómico de Tex Avery. Desde ese entonces, ha organizado retrospectivas y ha dictado conferencias sobre Avery en el Festival de Annecy, Francia (1998), en Italia (1998, 1999), Noruega (2001), Marruecos, Trinidad y Holanda (2008). Se ha desempeñado como Jurado en festivales internacionales. También ha expandido sus intereses por fuera del cine de animación, participando en libros y publicaciones académicas en Canadá, Francia, Italia, Japón, Rusia, España y los Estados Unidos. En marzo de 2007 editó el libro CinémAnimationS, y acaba de presentar su nuevo libro en el Festival de Annecy: Le Langage comique de Tex Avery (El lenguaje cómico de Tex Avery), basado en su disertación doctoral. As to put this issue today into perspective, I shall frst quote Gilles Deleuze, writing about American society: For Ford, as for Vidor, society changes, and does not stop changing, but its changes take place in an Encompasser which covers them and blesses them with a healthy illusion as continuity of the nation. Finally, the American cinema constantly shoots and reshoots a single fundamental flm, which is Birth of a Nation-Civilization, whose frst version was provided by Grifth.1 Applied to Tex Avery cartoons, the matter would then correspond to a continuance in a pragmatic view upon American society, faithfully following its inner changes, and yet keeping the same celebration of its existence as such.
