Popular Southern Stereotypes

The “Mammy” Figure African American woman Worked and served in white households happily Mother figure for children of plantations Powerful within household

Popular Mammy Images:

Mammy in Gone With the Wind

Real “Mammies” Rare Unhappy Raped by white owners Light-skinned/ daughter of rape Powerless in the household

The Southern Belle Southern hospitality and charm Balance of beauty and modesty Highest achievement of southern refinement and culture Prioritized marriage above all else

A Few Rules of Southern Belles: Never wear white shoes before Easter or after Labor Day except is if it is a bride. Thank you notes are a necessary component of being gracious and appreciative. Never chew gum or smoke on the street. Never show anger in public. Smile and act like a lady. Act helpless and confused when it's to your advantage; never let them know how clever and capable you really are... Charm, Charm, Charm. Be elegant and graceful
