Steryotypes in Pocahontas

Pocahontas the movie has many sterotypes. Including that the Indians are the savages. When John Smith first meets Pocahontas he calls her people savages. There is the thought of the Indians being able to talk with the animals and the tree. Then she starts to sing the colors of the wind. There is the thought that the whites are all rich and have all the power. The other thing is all the Indians have the feather and they are red skinned and they all live off the land. Another thing is that Pocahontas was the Indian princess and that she was the cheifs daughter.All the steorotypes are the same about Indians. They show the audience iof kids will all know that the indians are they are savages and that they are red skinned.
