yep the watermelon stereotype and the chicken stereotype are born out of this period. We were successful Watermelon and Chicken farmers and cacs didn't like it.
Yo can you post a link I find it interesting about this topic. I also heard from Tariq nasheed is that clowns were created by whites to make fun of black folks who came out of slavery cause their clothes were tattered and weather down. :leon:

How Watermelons Became a Racist Trope



Fried Chicken Isn’t a Punchline—It’s Part of the Black American Story - Life & Thyme


“If you look at the historical roots of entrepreneurship of people of African descent, since they became enslaved people, [fried chicken] was one of the few things that one could multiply and sell,” says Babson College professor of history and foodways Frederick Douglass Opie. Opie, who says the economic benefits of fried chicken can be traced back to American slavery, says the sale of fried chicken was a form of freedom."

At least Tariq says some things worth learning.

Look at the Afro wig. The big painted on lips. They just color swapped for modern clowns. But it's racist imagery.

Mickey Mouse is based on the sambo looking cartoon images.
