misrepresentation on the screen it has done on many levels great harm. on the radio amos & andy quat was one of the most popular sitcoms. but the performers who played them on radio were white. come up here and dedicate the sky ride. the original pilot for the show were done in blackface, and the sponsors said, i don t know if this is going to go over well. so they cast it with some very funny black comedians. what do you think, lightning? this sure is a thin house. it was at times hysterically funny. but the stereotypes left a negative taste in a lot of our mouths. the central characters are all just different iterations of the minstrel archetypes from minstrel shows where white men were putting on blackface.
