About

Mammy Two Shoes is the name incorrectly attributed to a fictional character in MGM's Tom and Jerry cartoons. She is a middle-aged African American woman based on the mammy stereotype. As a partially-seen character, her head was rarely seen, except in a few cartoons including Part Time Pal (1947), A Mouse in the House (1947), Mouse Cleaning (1948), and Saturday Evening Puss (1950). Mammy appeared in 19 cartoons, from Puss Gets the Boot (1940) to Push-Button Kitty (1952). Her appearances have often been edited out, dubbed, or re-animated in later television showings, since the mammy stereotype is now usually considered racist. Her creation points to the ubiquity of stereotype in American popular culture, and the character was removed from the series after 1953 due to protests from the NAACP.
