How Tyler Perry's Films perpetuate black stereotypes.

1. Problematic Tyler Perry
I have receipts if you like to see them...

2. Medea

3. Mammy Archetype
● Known to be the Black woman who would
care for the slave masters children and
raise her like her own.
● Portrayed always as being big,
darkskinned, and typically always wearing
a bandana. Usually to hide the myth that
White men find Black woman to be ugly.

4. Diary of a Mad Black Woman
● Continues on the stereotype that Black
women are bitter, defenseless, and angry.
● Portrays men to always be the hero.

5. Temptation
● Uses HIV/Aids as a consequence, calls it
“sinners disease”
● States that there is a specific way to go
about marriage.
● Doesn’t look at the male character Harley,
as the one who is primarily making these
choices.
● Rape culture
