        See Patricia Turner's *Ceramic Uncles & Celluloid Mammies: Black
Images and Their Influence on Culture* (New York: Anchor Books, 1994).
        Also, see Hollywood cinema and its beloved domestic laborers of
color: Hattie McDaniel, Louise Beavers, Butterfly McQueen, Stepin Fetchit,
Bill Bojangles Robinson, Eddie Rochester Anderson, Clarence Muse, Mantan
Moreland, et al.
 
and also obviously the title is a pun on
>> words- the threat of European (fascist) history repeating

        *European* *Fascist*???  How about *racist?*  (European, American,
etc.)  Explain this, please.
