Context "In addition to caregiving Mammies, African American women are often portrayed as sexually irresponsible, promiscuous Jezebels and as angry, combative Sapphires (Collins, 2000; Jewell, 1993). If you do not believe that these images still exist, spend an afternoon watching television. Although many marginalized groups are stereotyped, including women from all ethnic backgrounds, poor people, and sexual minorities, oppressive images can be more damaging for some groups because there are fewer positive or realistic images to counter these negative representations (Hudson, 1998). " West, C. M. (2008). Mammy, Jezebel, Sapphire, and their homegirls: Developing an "oppositional" gaze toward the images of Black women. In J. C. Chrisler, C. Golden, & P. D. Rozee (Eds.), Lectures on the psychology of women (pp. 287-299). McGraw-Hill.
