EDITORS COMMENTS
Cartoon, E W Mackney, Ethiopian Entertainer," is a poignant reminder of the complex and controversial history of blackface minstrelsy during the late Victorian era in the 1880s. The image features the Ethiopian entertainer, E W Mackney, who donned blackface makeup to perform in minstrel shows. Blackface minstrelsy was a popular form of entertainment during this time, but it was also a deeply problematic and offensive practice that perpetuated harmful stereotypes and reinforced racial prejudice. Mackney, dressed in a colorful costume adorned with feathers and beads, is shown mid-performance, with a mischievous grin on his face and a banjo in hand. The photograph captures a moment of levity and entertainment, but it also underscores the troubling power dynamics at play. The annual, likely a yearbook or program for a minstrel show, in which this image was published, would have reinforced the notion that black people were inferior and exoticized, perpetuating harmful stereotypes that persisted long after the Victorian era. Despite its historical significance, the use of blackface in entertainment is now widely regarded as offensive and harmful. This photograph serves as a reminder of the complex and often problematic history of race and representation in entertainment, and the importance of recognizing and challenging harmful stereotypes." Mary Evans Picture Library's collection offers a wealth of historical images, including this one, that shed light on the complex and often controversial aspects of history. This photograph, in particular, offers a glimpse into the world of blackface minstrelsy during the late Victorian era and the harmful stereotypes that were perpetuated through this form of entertainment. It is a powerful reminder of the importance of recognizing and challenging harmful stereotypes, and of the need to acknowledge the complex and often problematic aspects of our history.
