Bullsh!t...stereotypes are THERE because for the majority...they're TRUE. Do you really think that it's NOT true? How would it get so popular if it wasn't?
Almost half of blacks are receiving some form of welfare...so the "stereotype" of their laziness and lack of ability to take care of themselves is TRUE. Blacks are up to 10X more violent than whites...hence the "stereotype" of them being dangerous. Blacks fail in education at an alarming rate...the stereotype of their stupidness is valid. Black neighborhoods are ALWAYS dirty and in disrepair...therefore the stereotype of them being dirty and lazy is accurate.
Lets make it EASIER...you list the stereotype you disagree with...the one you think isn't valid...and I'll show you how it IS an accurate descriptor.
