Subject: RE: BS: 'Star Trek- movie
Stereotypes can be in the mind of the beholder, too; I recall the difference in reactions to the fact that in The Passion, Mel Gibson had Judas bargain for his info, ending up at 30 pieces of silver but but not starting there. I took that to be completely normal behavior, and a good friend of mine took it to be an anti-jewish stereotype...I was just wondering what in the world was the "unbelievable Jewish and black stereotyping in Star Wars Episode I" that so astounded Peter T. I also thought of JarJar as being a yokel stereotype, not a black one, as I was later informed I should be outraged about.
