Slave stereotypes have influenced the portrayals of African Americans today in the way that most of the stereotypes we have now are based on those. The stereotypes have never changed much: they're stupid, they can't comprehend as much, and they're of a lower class. While these stereotypes may be true for some of this race, it is definitely not true for all. Because these stereotypes first existed and were never completely shot down, they have carried through to today. Because these have been preserved through time and commonly brought up, it still effects how African Americans in general are presented.

Ethnic stereotypes were common. The Germans, Czechs, Greeks Russians and the Irish were viewed as the tools of the saloon and the brewers. Saloons and foreigners went hand-in-hand in this stereotype at the time. African Americans were also portrayed as drinkers. :)
Probably human's nature to categorize and group things. It's natural to group like things together so its possible that stereotyping came from that tendency, grouping races, religions and sexes together because of similarities among them.
