Introduction
This paper analyzes the polemic episode of the American cartoon “The
Simpsons” entitled “Blame it on Lisa”1 in which the family goes to Brazil to seek an
orphan boy who Lisa, the older Simpson’s daughter, has come to know through a
donation campaign to an orphanage in Brazil. The main tools for the analysis were the
concepts of stereotyping and imagined communities developed by Stuart Hall in the text
“The spectacle of the other”2 and “The question of Cultural Identity”3 Also, the
anthropological theories about culture of Roque de Barros Laraia were applied 4 .

Theoretical Development
Firstly, it is important to recall that when the episode “Blame it on Lisa”
was aired a polemic discussion5, involving Riotur (the Brazilian Tourist Department of
Rio de Janeiro), FOX (the television network responsible for its production and
distribution), Fernando Henrique Cardoso (the president of Brazil at that time) and Matt
Groening (the author of the cartoon) followed it. The political and cultural issues that
emerged concerned mainly the pejorative image that the cartoon propagated of Brazil. It
was argued that the cartoon only emphasized negative aspects of the country, such as
poverty, crime, violence and mistreatment of children, at the same time, it satirized
symbols of “Brazilianity”, such as samba, carnival and soccer. Also, it presented the

country as a strange and exotic place. As a matter of fact, the episode reinforces some
stereotypes of Brazil that were already quite widespread.
Besides that, the repercussion of it also demonstrates how precious the
question of national identity remains in the context of globalization. As Stuart Hall
observes:

(…) alongside the tendency towards homogenization, there is also a fascination with
difference and the marketing of ethnicity and ‘otherness’. There is a new interest in ‘the
local’ together with the impact of ‘the global’. Globalization (in the form of flexible
specialization and ‘niche’ marketing) actually exploits local differentiation. Thus,
instead of thinking of the global replacing the local, it would be more accurate to think
of a new articulation between ‘the global’ and ‘the local (…)6

As in the industry of commodities, a great amount of products from the

Cultural Industry nowadays is designed to be delivered worldwide; therefore, depending
on the way it represents the local and particular aspects of a culture, it might generate
concordance or opposition by the locals (members of the represented or target culture).
The latter seems to have been the major response of Brazilians in relation to that
episode of the Simpsons series, at least, that was the response of the Brazilian official
institutions at that moment.
Bearing in mind that The Simpsons is commonly recognized for its
criticism towards social conventions and institutions the resulting discordance in
relation to the episode cannot be taken as something absolutely unexpected. On the
contrary, that highly stereotyped representation of Brazil can be seen as a strategy of its
producers to attract public attention.
The point in this paper is not only concerned with the polemics that the
cartoon caused, but with the form in which, from a foreign perspective, it represented a
national culture or created and reinforced an image of the other. In other words, it
investigates how the stereotypes of Brazilians built a caricature of the nation.
In the Spectacle of the other, Stuart Hall enumerates three features of
stereotyping that help us to understand how a supposedly innocent entertaining cartoon
fixes differences and marks asymmetric power relations. The first is: “Stereotyping
reduces people to a few, simple, essential characteristics, which are represented as fixed
by Nature”7. And then he complements:

6
HALL, Stuart. The question of cultural identity. Great Britain: Polity Press, p. 304.
7
HALL, Stuart. The spectacle of the ‘Other’. London: Sage and The Open University, p. 257
 Stereotypes get hold the few ‘simple, vivid, memorable, easily grasped and widely
recognized’ characteristics about a person, reduce everything about the person to those
traits, exaggerate and simplify them, and fix them without change or development to
eternity. So, the first point is – stereotyping reduces, essentializes, naturalizes and fixes
‘difference.’8

One example of this in the cartoon is when the family arrives in Rio and
goes to a hotel. As Marge had read in a manual for tourists that “you can go everywhere
in Brazil by taking a line of Conga, they appear dancing it in a line in their way to the
hotel. At the hotel’s reception the staff deals with the baggage and the apartment’s keys,
as if they were soccerballs. They kick them to one another until getting the baggage into
a wheelbarrow, crying “Goooal” after that. These scenes reinforce the image of
Brazilians as fans of soccer and dance even though Conga is not a typical Brazilian
dance. In fact, Conga originally came from Cuba and, then, it spread throughout Latin
America, so that mistake makes the representation of Brazilians even more
stereotypical. Another example of this wrong representation in the cartoon is the
drawing of the men with thin moustaches and tanned skin, as all men in Latin America
look like Mexicans. There is also a great deal of criticism against the Americans. An
example of this is when Bart was in the plane studying Spanish in order to prepare
himself for the stay in Brazil. He got upset when his mother told him that in Brazil
people speak Portuguese. He felt he wasted his time.
The cartoon explores, in many passages, the image of Brazil as a country
of exacerbating sexuality. The programs for children on TV, for example, just show
women making sensual movements and sexy poses. Similar are the images of Carnival,
where men and women dance in a provocative way. Also, the “nakedness” of Brazilians
is stereotypically referred when Bart and Homer are at Copacabana beach, wearing t-
shirt and shorts and the lifeguard stops them to say that people are not allowed to walk
on the beach wearing clothes. Then, they appear wearing swimming trunks, which, by
the way, do not fit Homer.
Another common stereotyped image of Brazil abroad is that the entire
country is a huge jungle. That image is recuperated in the cartoon through the scene of
Ronaldo, the orphan boy, being persecuted by a group of chimpanzees in front of the
Filthy Angels Orphanage. That image was sent to Lisa on videotape from the orphanage
and makes Homer Simpson come up with the idea of going after the boy in Rio. The
exaggerated sentimental appeal in the video indicates that the campaign for donation
8
Ibidem, p. 258
would be a “lure”, while it reveals the naivety of the Simpsons in believing such a
discourse. Actually, that was not the only occasion in which Brazilians appear taking
advantage of the ingenuity of others. Another was when Bart asked a seller on the street
about Ronaldo and she pretends to have seen him just to distract Bart and his father,
giving her children opportunity to steal money from them. In fact, the episode brings to
the extreme the widespread idea of “the Brazilian way of managing things by breaking
the rules”. Brazilians are shown as dishonest people and Rio as a very dangerous city. In
a certain moment, Homer and Bart take a taxi, ignoring the recommendation from the
tourist’s guidance of never taking an unlicensed taxi and, “consequently”, Homer is
kidnapped by the supposed taxi-driver and taken to the Amazon. There, one of the
kidnappers says: “Take advantage of the trip to see the forest, because we are burning
all this.”
Although many of those representations could not be totally denied, since
they carrie a great deal of validity, the generalized way in which they were represented
spreads a preconceived image of the country and its people, since it reinforces
stereotypes. As Stuart Hall points out: “Another feature of stereotyping is its practice of
‘closure’ and exclusion. It symbolically fixes boundaries, and excludes everything
which does not belong”9. In this sense, the American identity affirms itself as the
developed and civilized society by building an image of primitiveness and unsociability
of the others. Although it can be said that the Simpsons do not really correspond to a
model of harmonious family relationship at all, in that particular episode, they represent
the culturally acceptable and normal, while Brazilians are the unacceptable and
abnormal.
As Stuart Hall points out “Stereotyping tends to occur where there are
gross inequalities of power. Power is usually directed against the subordinate or
excluded group. One aspect of this power, according to Dyer, is ethnocentrism – ‘the
application of the norms of one’s own culture to that of others’.”10 The fact that people
see the world through their culture has consequences, because it makes them consider
his way of living as the most correct and natural. There is a dichotomy established
between ‘we’ and the ‘others’ inside the same society between members of a family and
the non members, and also outside it, in relation to society in general. An example of
this idea is when Lisa is reading a book in the airplane about Brazil and says that the

9

10
Ibidem, p. 258.
seasons are inverted in comparison to the United States, and Homer says “That's the
land of the contrary. It is the thieves that run after the police…”. This speech shows
Homer's view of Brazil. Lisa was talking just about the seasons, but Homer interpreted
this idea as if in Brazil everything happens upside down. To some extent, Homer
translates the American view of Brazilian culture, since he represents the ordinary
American father.

(…) modern Western nations were also the centers of empires or neo-imperial spheres
of influence, exercising cultural hegemony over the cultures of the colonized. Some
historians now argue that it was in this process of comparison between the virtues of
Englishness and the negative features of the other cultures that many of the distinctive
characteristics of English identities were first defined.11

The idea of culture in a broader sense is developed by Laraia 12 who

explains in the second part of his book how culture works; that the way we see the
world is mediated by our cultural inheritance as well as our moral values and different
kinds of social behavior. In accordance with our cultural heritage we tend to deny
differences and classify them as inferior in relation to stipulated standard behavior.
It can be clearly noticed through the contrast between Springfield (a
developed city of the U.S.A, where the Simpsons live), whose environment was
represented by technology and machines; and Brazil, as the jungle. It demonstrates the
dichotomy between modernity and primitiveness.
Instead of thinking of national cultures as unified, we should think of
them as constituting a discursive device, which represents difference as unity and
identity. They are cross-cut by deep internal divisions and differences and ‘unified’
only through the exercise of different forms of cultural power.13
In this episode there is an attempt to unify Brazilian culture, and the
author uses stereotypes in order to represent the whole nation. For example, the
illustration of the city is made by the images of shantytown and jungle, as if all cities in
Brazil, and even Rio de Janeiro, were like that.
At this point, it is interesting to think about the concept of National
Cultures as Imagined Communities within the context of globalization. Citing Schwarz,
Stuart Hall observes that:

11
Ibidem., p. 297
12
LARAIA, R. Cultura: um conceito antropológico, p. 67
13
Ibidem, p. 297.
 (…) national identities are not things we are born with, but are formed and transformed
within and in relation to representation. We only know what it is to be ‘English’
because of the way ‘Englishness’ has come to be represented, as a set of meanings, by
English national culture. It follows that a nation is not only a political entity but
something which produces meanings – system of cultural representation. People are not
only legal citizens of a nation; they participate in the idea of the nation as represented in
its national culture. A nation is a symbolic community and it is this which accounts for
its power to generate a sense of identity and allegiance. (Schwarz, 1986, p. 106).14

Thus, if a nation is a system of cultural representation, the “dialogue”

between two different cultures and the eventual representation that emerges from that
dialogue constitutes an important factor on the formation of a national identity. In other
words, the way in which a country represents a foreign culture contributes to construct
the national identity of both the ‘representer’ (the country that produced the
representation) and the represented (target culture). It might be argued that the national
identity is built dialogically. In a globalized world, where the contact among cultures is
so frequent and intense, the national identity does not signify a self-image of a people as
it is commonly thought, but an image forged by that encounter (or contact) among
cultures that cannot necessarily keep symmetrical power relations. Actually, those
representations usually function to maintain the domination of a certain culture upon the
others.
From the linguistic approach comes the idea that “difference matters
because it is essential to meaning, without it, meaning could not exist”.15 In this sense
meaning is understood as relational. A second explanation that comes from other
theorists of language brings a slightly different perspective from that represented by
Saussure. It states that “we need difference because we can only construct meaning
through a dialogue with the ‘Other’”16. For Mikhail Bakhtin, meaning is established
through dialogue – it is fundamentally dialogic, because everything we say is modified
by the interaction and interplay with other persons. And the third kind of explanation is
anthropological; “the argument is that culture depends on giving things meaning by
assigning them to different positions within a classificatory system”17.
Therefore, considering the dialectics of meaning production, we might say that the
way Brazilian culture is painted by Americans is a consequence of the information they
get about the country. Since the main themes spread by the media are violence, drug
dealing, poverty, carnival, soccer and politics; and usually the places in focus are the

cities that mobilize tourism, economy, politics and environmental issues, they tend to
reduce Brazil to images such as shantytown, sexuality, violence, non-civilization and
corruption; and they also reduce its geography into two places: Rio de Janeiro and the
Amazon Forest. By these means, we notice that Homer was kidnapped when he was
taking a cab in Rio de Janeiro, and right after getting in the car, they were navigating on
the Amazon River. This gives the impression that the two places are very close, while,
in fact, they are 4261 Km far from one another. By the end of the episode Homer was
delivered to his family in the Sugar Loaf Mountain, getting there with the same easiness
as they went to the Amazon.
In conclusion, the cartoon Blame it on Lisa appropriates some
stereotypes of Brazil and updates them. Some issues such as poverty and violence are
mixed with traditional symbols of “Brazilianity” such as carnival, soccer and sexuality.
Considering the political hegemonic position of the United States, the
cartoon, as a cultural product, contributes to consolidate that hegemony. So, it can be
read as a translation of the current political configuration of power among nations.

Extra information
There is a Brazilian short cartoon that satirizes the criticisms directed
towards the referred episode of “The Simpsons”. On it Bart and Homer are talking to
the Brazilian President at the time, Fernando Henrique Cardoso, proposing to remake
the episode since it was considered not realistic and too exaggerated. By these means
they highlight some scenes that would be remade, such as the chimpanzee’s scene, the
kidnapping, and so on. By exposing these possible changes they denounce other
problems of the city.
