1!. They're comic folks who are either sentimentally tearful or ready to laugh and so cannot be taken seriously!.

2!. They like watermelon!.

3!. They all have a great sense of rhythm!.

4!. They're sexually powerful, especially the men!.

5!. They're intellectually dumb!.

6!. They like bright colors!.

7!. They are inherently musical (see # 3)!.


Mind you, these are the stereotypes!. Dumb like Condoleeza Rice and Barack Obama!? Comical and emotionally simple like James Baldwin, Ralph Ellison, Charles Chestnut, Sojourner Truth, Harriet Jacobs, and Ishmael Reed!? Etc!.

As for bright colors and sexual potency and watermelon and rhythm--these points are too idiotic to bother arguing!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
