"Buffy, Not Stuffy, the Economist" wow
today in AP US history i read that Harvard law proffessor Felix Frankforter remarked that their was much truth in the popular song "All Coons Look Alike to Me" during the Sacco Vanzetti trial in the 1920s. this makes me very nervous because "that was the title of one of America's favorite songs in the years just prior to 1919. White America had dragged the "coon" or "darkie" image of Blacks from the wreckage of ante-bellum slavery, and they exploited it to maximum advantage. The coon stereotype, also known as the "Sambo syndrome," characterized Blacks as harmless, asexual, lazy, good-natured, faithful, slow, trifling, stupid, inept and eternally hungry." i got this quote from http://www.blacklightonline.com/harlem.html
