This isn’t technically a Minstrel Show but rather a parody of one. They had mostly gone out of fashion by the time this film was made. Basically it’s a more modern movie and this is meant to show what they were actually like in the film.
@@getass3290 This isn’t parodic; it’s not skewering the minstrel show or trying to paint it in a different light to make a contemporary societal point. Rather, it’s a lovingly produced, nostalgic tribute to minstrelsy and in that sense is morally bereft. It should be preserved as a historical document of course; but I think it’s important to place it in the proper context when watching it.
@@KahlessTheUnforgettable Well they were already meant to be comedic. What were they supposed to do about it to make it “parodic” by your standards? Make it less racist? Make it more racist?
"Should history be censored and/or erased?" An ironic question, given the fact that after you licensed this movie, I was told to remove from RUclips all the clips I had posted from this movie for nearly 10 years. So, "Should history be censored and/or erased?" No, but apparently you can purchase an exclusive license for a movie and then insure that no one else can post clips from that movie. At least I provided some historical context for each clip. Perhaps you could do the same?
whites want to erase history or not talk about it cause they don't want the newer generations to know of all the sick shit they've done and continue to do.

We should have learned about this in school. This fascination Americans had with the idea of blackness through body language, dialogue and dancing. Even though it a gross mischaracteration of black people and outwardly made fun of. It shows that American have always had this kink for the black persona or stereotype. I can't help but to think about Chris tucker or Chris rock and them performing the black stereo type on stage , (the sassyness and attitude they speak with) knowing this is not how they are at home.
Aah…..casual Racism. Hope this video is not canceled We need to watch this , it happened . No point in sweeping it under a rug. But damn it’s fascinating what constituted « entertainment » back then . It is as if I’m watching Cavemen (women) being entertained by throwing their feces to a Wall.

Was it to mock black Americans ? To show « appréciation » to a culture they CLEARLY do not understand. One might facetiously say that but if it is the case ,why the black face ? Why not use a black actor? And of course if no black actor wants the part then reconsider the « jokes » And i know to judge history by today’s standard is useless. But these people must have known how wrong it was. And about myself I wonder why am I truly offended by it . It is a time and place I would never know. Yes I’m a black man but but not an American one and not from the fifties .So I do not recognize myself in this at all and yet , I feel bad inside. I find all of this fascinating 🙂
Daily reminder that historical preservation is important, offensive or not. Imagine getting triggered by a 1950s film that obviously isn't gonna live up to todays cultural standards xddddd tho seriously i didnt know blackface was still prevalent even then, i thought by the 1950s there would be at least SOME actual black representation
Unfortunately any black people being portrayed on film (whether that be in blackface or not) was horribly offensive, like this video. Films like gone with the wind, that features a black character, played into harmful stereotypes. That also extends to other people of colour. There were may poc actors but they were forced into caricatures. America was legally segregated at this time so they could very much get away with this. I agree that historical preservation is important. Performances like this have a long lasting influence on modern day racial stereotypes and should not be lost to the past
My grandmother's understanding of Black people largely came from 1920s-1950s Hollywood. She was born in 1917, lived in a segregated town, and only saw Blacks as inferiors. Towards the end of her life, her views changed enough to where she voted for Obama and doted on her three half-Black grandchildren. Sadly, most of her generation didn't even try to change.
At least Charlie Chan although the makeup is an unfortunate reflection of the time, was still meant to be an intelligent and quickwitted character. This minstrel show does nothing but try to make black people look as uneducated and dumb as possible.
I don't see any problem with showing this for historic reasons, or well, for SOME reason... why was this clip pulled and shown specifically? Ummm. What? EDIT: I wouldn't want the scene censored, or any scene censored really, but why pull just this scene from a film, it's worse the more I think about it...

Lol I’m sorry but this is funny. That dude is a good actor.
Yeah dude I agree. I've never seen such a good impression to be honest.
You must be a clown. I swear the circus left you behind.

@@javimiami92you probably don’t get out much then
Corny sense of humor then
@@javimiami92it's a good impression of a hateful white man.
Agreed. Censorship is racism, music and comedy is just entertainment, it's not serious. It's just satire.
What are u going on about mate?
@@Charlotteyuhyuh I just respect all musical entertainment and Jazz in general, even Rap, I don't care what the lyrics represent, it's just entertainment.
You know that lady will be in Shrek in 2001 who is she was also Jerry Lewis‘s comic foil in a lot of his movies

Right
The republican maga supporters took over the comment section
I'm coloured and I found this entertaining 😂 dudes got some moves though.
Hence why you called yourself “coloured”?
@@danieia4029 In South Africa I am classified as coloured by law. I'm not allowed to tick the black box on government forms and such
@@danieia4029 It's because we have European ancestry as well as Native Khoi
@@cdcarelse796 Well, the fact you found it entertaining is questionable considering you’re heritage. Do you think black people fought for freedom to be mocked in this way?
@@danieia4029 To each his own. Search Leon Schuster and see why i have no problem with this type of entertainment
I think we can safely say this was the greatest entertainer of the 20th century.
Not really..
@@Stibly yeah, this is entertainment? This is disturbing.
I wouldn’t call him the greatest, but he’s funny as hell.
