Uncle Tomfoolery	comment	A black, primarily male comic relief character who makes the audience laugh by displaying the traits of a racist stereotype of black men. He'll usually be boastful out of danger (but a cringing wreck in the face of it), goofy, loud, annoying, and ultimately incompetent. These characteristics also serve to show the (usually white) protagonists as calm, brave, and adept. Female examples, when they do exist, are likely to adhere to ratchet or "strong, in'a'pen'ant woman who don't need no man" stereotypes, where the core characterization is largely the same: loud, boorish, buffoonish, obnoxious, and overly "extra" and prone to overreactions and long-winded boasting, though she is generally more likely to be at least somewhat competent. Compare the Sassy Black Woman stereotype. This is a trope with a long history in Hollywood movies as far back as the '20s; in the very early days, it was often played by a white actor in blackface. No mystery or old-dark-house movie was complete without the stock character of the cringing black servant or chauffeur who was extremely superstitious. ("Boss! Spooks!") This stereotype was so popular that actors like Lincoln "Stepin Fetchit" Perry even made whole careers out of the role. This in turn was a shamelessly racist adaptation of the old melodrama and theatre trope of the incompetent domestic servant, and more generally of "darkies" from minstrel shows. The trope saw continued use into the 1990s but with the Uncle Tomfoolery character being a duo with the White character, but growing racial awareness and an increasing interest in action heroes who just happen to be black, such as Denzel Washington and Samuel L. Jackson, has caused it to gradually lose popularity. Accusations of Uncle Tomfoolery will continue, in part because there are plenty of black actors who happen to be good at comedy, though the 'hip' elements have decreased. The trope's name is derived from "Uncle Tom," a common slang term for a black person who is excessively subservient to white people. The original Uncle Tom (of Uncle Tom's Cabin) was anything but subservient, comic or cowardly; however, the immensely popular stage adaptation of Uncle Tom's Cabin replaced the novel's serious social commentary with melodrama and filled it out with comic interludes that were often heavy on ugly stereotypes. This led to some serious Misaimed Fandom from racists who went to see black people mocked in what became known as "Tom Shows." Engaging in Uncle Tomfoolery is sometimes referred to as "Cooning." No connection to Black Comedy or Bertie Wooster's uncle, Tom Travers. See also: Ethnic Scrappy, Plucky Comic Relief, Black Dude Dies First, Modern Minstrelsy. Contrast: Magical Negro, Whoopi Epiphany Speech. Compare and contrast Soul Brotha, when blatant use of these stereotypes makes character look awesome, not laughable. Characters who embody this trope will sometimes be on the receiving end of Stop Being Stereotypical. Descendant of Minstrel Shows.

Uncle Tomfoolery / int_23a47af4	comment	In the Winnetou books, Bob suffers from this rather badly, especially in The Son of the Bear Hunter, where he serves only as comic relief, is portrayed as almost entirely incompetent, not very bright, devoted to his employers (he's a freed slave), mostly cowardly and very impulsive. He gets a lot better and more nuanced in the next book, The Ghost of Llano Estacado, where his only significant racial markers are his speech and his backstory as a freed slave still in something of a subservient position. In that book, he has Taken a Level in Badass to a certain degree and he gets to play a more competent part in the plot which other characters downplay possibly because of his race, while the plot proves him right. Only for him to mostly slip back again in Old Surehand, although at least by that point it's treated a bit more realistically as his personal characteristics and he's described as quite competent in certain areas but just hopelessly out of his element when it comes to dangerous situations and thinking on his feet. (But rather painfully so in contrast to the white hero narrator.)

It does not help that physically, he has large nostrils and his "lips" make up half of his face, both traits commonly exaggerated in black caricatures, and his large floppy ears have been compared to dreadlocks. Jar-Jar's first lines in the series, "Me-sa your humble servant," call slavery and domestic servitude to mind.

He's a black pimp who constantly spits out slang, has an ostentatious grill and keeps getting murdered in death traps (played for laughs) while going "Aw hell nawh!". And he's not even black, he uses blackface. And to further prove Madworld's double line-crossing, the Baron's (black) voice actor would later become one of the aforementioned Transformers twins in the same year. Guess which character the Internet criticized. The sequel, Anarchy Reigns, carries the character over as the Blacker Baron, still playing up the stereotypes (but, as the game is now in color, the character is an actual black man, though emphasizing that he can still kick the ever-loving shit out of you.

However, he is considerably more observant and intelligent than the Big Bad and when he is alone with the black slaves he becomes extremely sinister, suggesting that the Uncle Tomfoolery is his deliberately being sufficiently non-threatening to the whites that he is allowed to keep his position of power within the household and act as his master's dragon. He is also, at the very least, a Dragon Ascendant; he not only outlives his master but also gets dramatically killed while shouting curses in the film's violent climax, further suggesting that he is more of a Big Bad than his Fool of a master.

However, as the series continued, the white man got less suicidal and the black man got less uptight. The character that fits the most is actually the white Leo Getz, played by Joe Pesci.

Uncle Tomfoolery / int_abf4c9b3	comment	Zack from the Dead or Alive franchise. Wherever he goes, Zack often makes commotion and creates scenes. With his cheerful ways, clownish antics, and sometimes weird behavior, Zack is often a source of comic relief in the series. Played with in that he has zero Jive Turkey characteristics; his wackiness and his ethnicity have virtually nothing to do with each other. Then again, he fulfills the wacky and clownish aspects, but not the incompetent. After all, he is the one person who ranks consistently high in all the tournaments. In the fifth game Helena employs him as a bodyguard, and to test the entrants.

For some reason, the Huns have a servant, played by Eric Idle in blackface, named Uncle Tom who acts this way. Although it's a parody of the trope, it's still probably one of the poorer-aged jokes Python ever did.

Uncle Tomfoolery / int_cb66716	comment	1929 film Hallelujah! is a complex example. Director King Vidor apparently went into this film with the best of intentions and wanted to make an authentic portrait of rural black life. So it's all the more disappointing that Hallelujah is a collection of racist stereotypes. There's the simple-minded poor folk with their bad grammar, which could be excused as being somewhat realistic for people who were denied an education. The What an Idiot portrayal of protagonist Zeke is harder to excuse, and the portrayal of Zeke as thinking with his penis and being completely unable to control his urges is even worse. Then there's Zeke's younger sister who thinks a ticking watch has a heartbeat, or the time-honored racist stereotype of blacks gambling with dice. The lack of white people in the movie also rather insidiously suggests that black people are causing their own problems, instead of being oppressed by racism.

Which the creators then play with endlessly... like they do everything. He finds Tyler Perry hilarious but is confused and embarrassed about it. Another example: he's never even picked up' a bass guitar in his life, but the moment you put it in his hands, he can play the shit out of it. Although it wasn't mentioned until Season 25, Tolkien was always meant to have been named after author J. R. R. Tolkien and anyone who thought his name was a reference to tokenism has unconscious racial biases.

Jimmie Walker played the part so well that the character of J.J. soon overshadowed the show's original premise (an African-American family living in a low-income housing apartment trying to improve their economic situation but always failing, due to poor luck or other circumstances), and many began criticizing the show for presenting J.J. as a stereotypical black â€“ i.e., a buffon; the critics included Walker's castmates, John Amos and Esther Rolle, and it led to Amos' firing and Rolle's temporary departure.

He's probably a genie, but that doesn't make him any less of a blackface character, especially with the way he talks in short, simplistic sentences and refers to himself in third person. The English manga releases changed the artwork to make his lips more subtle and smaller, while an airing of Dragon Ball Z Kai on The CW's Toonzai block re-colored his skin to be blue instead (of course, this was a block run by 4Kids, so that wasn't the only thing they changed).

Uncle Tomfoolery / int_fb14d1b2	comment	Averted in Uncle Tom's Cabin, which is a serious tale about Uncle Tom, a pious, Christian, good man and his horrid life as a slave. No dancing, swearing, or nonsense about him whatsoever. The only problem contemporary readers had with the story is that they felt he was too passive and portrayed a double standard when compared with instances of whites resisting oppression: see the quote here from an 1852 edition of the abolitionist paper The Liberator. Unfortunately, mean-spirited stage parodies of the book became extremely popular throughout the South in response to the book's success, and the term "Uncle Tom" came to refer more to the character portrayed in these shows - typically, yes, by white actors in blackface - than to the more serious original character.
