The Help
1) Black females are the main group represented in this trailer as they are the ones who are being stereotyped. The other people represented are whites, they are seen as more powerful.
2) This is a dominate portrayal as it reinforces the stereotype that blacks are inferior to everyone else. However, there is a alternative portrayal as it challenges the stereotype that women shouldn't work and should stay at home to run the household as the female protagonist is a writer.
3) Different stereotypes; black women are treated as inferior as they are slaves, women in general are housewives and the men are the breadwinners.
