I saw this in a flee market and found it simultaneously horrifying and hilarious. I’m curious about how something like this might have come to be?

      The mammy is usually portrayed as an older woman, overweight, and dark skinned. She is an idealized figure of a caregiver: amiable, loyal, maternal, non-threatening, obedient, and submissive. The mammy figure demonstrates deference to white authority.

      Um yes. Racism. And bad taste. Thanks.
