Those cartoons were sooooo racially charged. Nothing more than racist propaganda comparable to the days of penny novels that spewed hatred to the masses.

Some of the cartoon images that immediately come to my mind are:

The Africa baby with the bone sticking out of her hair.

The blackface depictions, particularly when "is you is or is you ain't my baby" was sung.

The faceless mammy in Tom and Jerry.

Not to mention Speedy Gonzalez. Was that looney toons or warner bros. Oh well.

These things were an overtly racist sign of their overtly racist times.
