journée contre le racisme les hommages qui sont racistes

Et si ces "hommages" innocents cachaient en réalité une histoire de racisme ? 🤔  Lors de la journée internationale de lutte contre le racisme, il est temps de se pencher sur des pratiques que l'on croyait sans conséquence. Des chansons d'anniversaire enfantines aux déguisements stéréotypés, beaucoup de nos traditions culturelles sont ancrées dans des représentations simplifiées et problématiques de certaines communautés.  Découvrez comment des spectacles comme les "Minstrel Shows" du 19ème siècle ont façonné notre imaginaire collectif. Le cinéma, avec ses blackfaces et ses westerns caricaturaux, a largement contribué à diffuser ces clichés qui persistent encore aujourd'hui.  Porter un déguisement, même sans intention malveillante, peut perpétuer des caricatures héritées d'une histoire complexe. Ce n'est pas l'intention qui pose problème, mais la signification profonde et les origines de ces représentations.  Alors, qu'en pensez-vous ? Saviez-vous cela ? Dites-le nous en commentaire et abonnez-vous pour ne rien manquer !  #LutteRacisme #ClichésCulturels #HistoireRaciale

00:00Yuhoo!

00:14We see happy Native American children celebrating with non-Native American children and everything is fine.

00:19Isn't that a bit awkward? I don't intend to talk about all that.

00:22But I'm going to give you 2-3 ideas for the International Day Against Racism.

00:27What you thought was innocent, well, it's not innocent at all.

00:30If you've ever sung "Happy Birthday Little Indians" or dressed up as a geisha,

00:34in bombarlé or whatever,

00:35What you're about to understand might disturb you.

00:37These two things have one thing in common.

00:39They come from the same cultural phenomenon.

00:41On one side, Buffalo Grill's birthday song, on the other, some tribute costumes.

00:46Both are based on a highly simplified representation of a real culture.

00:50The song "Little Indians" is inspired by an old American diner in Little Indians.

00:53This nursery rhyme dates from the 19th century and comes from shows called "Millswell Show," as do these costumes.

01:00Caricatured actors of non-white populations and some versions were even more explicitly racist.

01:05This type of representation has been widely disseminated through cinema, for example in "The Jazz Singer".

01:11where a white actor performs in blackface.

01:13Or in Westerns that transformed Native Americans into clichés: feathers, cries, costumes, etc.

01:18When you wear a costume without makeup and you think it's a shame,

01:22You no longer represent a person, but a caricature inherited from a racial history.

01:26The problem isn't the intention, it's the story behind it.

01:29Because sometimes, what we think is innocent actually comes from something we didn't know about.

01:33never questioned.

01:35Let me know in the comments if you knew this and most importantly, subscribe.
