Misfitz - Brer Rabbit: A Playful Twist on a Classic Character This charming early 20th century photograph captures the whimsical image of Brer Rabbit, a beloved figure from the traditional African American Br'er Rabbit folktales, dressed in human clothing. The rabbit, named Misfitz here, is depicted in a jaunty pose as he takes a leisurely stroll, clad in a red jacket, yellow waistcoat, blue striped trousers, and a red cravat. The humanized attire adds an amusing layer to the character, making him appear more relatable and endearing to viewers. Brer Rabbit, a cunning trickster, is a popular character in the Br'er Rabbit stories, which originated from the Southern United States. These tales have their roots in West African Anansi stories, which have been passed down through generations. In these stories, Brer Rabbit uses his wit and intelligence to outsmart various animal antagonists, including Brer Fox and Brer Bear. The photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, showcases the playful and imaginative nature of the Brer Rabbit character. Misfitz's humanized appearance, complete with clothing and a confident walk, adds a unique twist to the traditional representation of the character. This photograph is a delightful reminder of the rich cultural heritage and storytelling traditions that have shaped American folklore.
