The movie Airplane had a scene of an old woman translating a black man’s “Jive”.

A big part of that joke was just who the "old woman" was... It was Barbra Billingsly, the mother from "Leave it to Beaver."

“It was Barbra Billingsly, the mother from “Leave it to Beaver.”

Imitating the typical Chicago, New York and Detroit
school
teacher. Well, most northeastern teachers anyway. But you
cant blame them. Their unions tell them to get down to
student level. They will be ignorant but at least the students
will have a healthy self esteem.
