Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Like their male counterparts, Jewish and Black women have long been overrepresented as comedic actors, writers and performers. Conversely, they have also they have been stereotyped in comic forms produced by both the dominant culture and their respective cultures. Despite the parallels in comic stereotypes between the two groups, there is very little work that examines the similarities in the ways that Jewish and Black women have historically been represented. The paper first explores discusses the commonalties in the stereotypes of Black and Jewish women and the ways that such depictions have differed from comic stereotypes of non-Jewish White women. I then trace the changes in the depiction of Black and Jewish women on situation comedies over the last 20 years. Particular attention is devoted to the ways that Jewish female characters are often “de-semitized” or “crypto-Jews”. After a brief discussion about the ways that such characters are likely to be perceived by viewers, I consider the implications of such portrayals, especially the continued reluctance of mainstream audiences to appreciate Black and overtly Jewish female characters as aspirational figures.
