When you're brown and your family owns gas stations, you are living the stereotype.

This is a 2-part story about the real Uncle Tom. Uncle Tom syndrome is a theory in psychology.[1] It refers to a coping skill where individuals use passivity and submissiveness when confronted with a threat, leading to subservient behaviour and appeasement, while concealing their true thoughts and feelings. The term "Uncle Tom" comes from the title character of Harriet Beecher Stowe's novel Uncle Tom's Cabin, where the African American slave Tom is beaten to death by a cruel white master for refusing to betray the whereabouts of two other slaves. ______ In the American racial context, "Uncle Tom" is a pejorative term for African-Americans that give up or hide their ethnic or gender outlooks, traits, and practices, in order to be accepted into the mainstream. Conservative African-Americans are often considered "Uncle Toms".[citation needed] In race minority literature Uncle Tom syndrome refers to African Americans that, as a necessary survival technique, opt to appear docile, non-assertive, and happy-go-lucky. Especially during slavery, African Americans used passivity and servility for the avoidance of retaliation and for self-preservation.[2] In a broader context, the term may refer to a minority's strategy of coping with oppression from socially, culturally or economically dominant groups involving suppression of aggressive feelings and even identification with the oppressor, leading to forced assimilation/acculturation of the cultural minority. __________ #distractionfromthetruth #sterotypical #knowthetruth #seekthetruth #spreadtruth @brownstonersbedstuyhousetour https://www.instagram.com/p/B9Sp93HJfls/?igshid=1fch9pweq4wu0

Research shows that African American students, and especially African American boys, are disciplined more often and receive more out-of-school suspensions and expulsions than White students.
