    FACTS
    :
    • Of all the American popular genres using African-American imagery, children's games have been
    among the most uniformly negative
    . Only in the last twenty years or so have white game manufacturers softened their depiction of Blacks. And only when Black lobbying has forced the elimination of
    derogatory racial stereotypes
    or when Blacks have invented and marketed games themselves, have the images turned from racial satirization to respect.
    • Like other popular media and genres, games communicate through graphics and text, but their
    messages are further expressed through the thoughts, actions, and strategies
    required to play them successfully. Because most players of children's games are young and impressionable, the imagery and action in those games may well promote racial stereotyping and prejudice, and reinforce or sanction those same attitudes among adult players.
    • The portrayal of African Americans in games over the past century has
    undergone an evolution
    that reflects three distinct eras in American race relations. Board games, first developed in the 1830s, grew in popularity among American middle-class families during the late nineteenth century, at a time when racial prejudice and segregation were on the rise not just in the American South, but also in many of the northern states due to massive immigration from Europe and the migration of southern Blacks to northern cities.
    • Anglo-American fascination with the newcomers, as well as their racial and ethnic prejudices, were reflected throughout popular culture: in music, literature, advertisements, theater, and games. While images of other ethnic groups tended to
    soften during the first decades
    of the twentieth century, derogatory African-American imagery, often overtly hostile, was common in American games up to the Second World War.
    • A transitional period, lasting from the mid-1940s to the mid-1960s, saw African- American imagery all but disappear from most genres of American popular culture, including games.
    • The
    Civil Rights
    Movement marked the beginning of another era in toy imagery which continues to today in which both Black and white-owned companies have introduced new, more realistic, and often strongly positive images of Black Americans.
    They were all meant to “amuse and instruct
    at the same time,” for “social entertainment, children’s parties, etc,” according to an 1898 ad in the School Journal. The ad also noted that the series was endorsed by teachers, superintendents and other educators.

    Under Scrutiny
    , This Game,” according to the Printing company, was to be intended to showcase “life-like reproductions of characteristic sketches from the Sunny South.” But
    others disagree
