Ethnic Notions is an award-winning documentary that takes viewers on a disturbing journey through American history. It traces for the first time the evolution of several deeply rooted stereotypes that have fueled anti-black prejudice. Loyal Toms, carefree Sambos, faithful Mammies, grinning Coons, savage Brutes and wide-eyed Pickaninnies roll across the screen in cartoons, feature films, popular songs, advertisements, household artifacts, even children's rhymes.
