How Does The Media
Influence Stereotypes?
Pocahontas
This movie has an "Indian Princess" stereotype
Dirty savages (the song says "barely even human!")
Pocahontas sidekick was a raccoon
The story was romanticized
The chief's daughter would NEVER disobey him or say no
Peter Pan
All men are unattractive. In this movie they have red skin and big noses
A stereotype in Peter Pan is that everybody is red
This movie also has the "Indian Princess" stereotype
The Lone Ranger
They used Johnny Depp for money and didn't care how the indigenous felt
They used Johnny Depp instead of an indigenous actor
Johnny Depp is wearing war paint outside of war
2012 movie made Tonto dirty and gross
In the old movie Tonto is a native actor :)
Last of The Mohicans
The way the battle scene is filmed it makes the indigenous seem like dirty savages
The indigenous are the bad guys
A white male is the main role
Other Common Stereotypes
Everybody lives in a teepee
Everybody wears a headdress (some nations don't even have one)
Everybody eats buffalo (Haudenosaunee depend on agriculture)
The indigenous NEVER wear war paint outside of war
Everyone wears animal hides
Totem poles
.
