I am reading The Adventures of Huck Finn and I noticed that there are plenty of people in this book that could snugly fit into multiple stereotypes. One character that fits into a stereotype was Jim, Ms. Watson's slave. The stereotype that Jim represents is that slaves cannot talk or think right and that they aren't as smart as everyone else. Just look at Jim's dialogue/dialect "Say, who is you? Whar is you? Dog my cats ef I didn' hear sumf'n." If that doesn't fit the stereotype then what does?
