    Disney's Song of the South

    Over the years Disney has released or been accused of having racists things in their movies & cartoons. Its no big secret that the crows in Dumbo resemble negative stereotypes of blacks (one name Jim Crow & another named Fats). There's the Siamese cats in Lady and the Tramp. Then there's the chopsticks using to play the piano Asian looking cat in The Aristricats. And who could forget the whole red colored Indians in Peter Pan? The Jewish stereotype Big Bad Wolf in the Three Little Pigs cartoon. These are just a few examples of the racist crap that has been in Disney features over the years. There is one that is even worse than all of these put together though. This would be Disney's Song of the South! Released in 1946 it is jam packed full of racism throughout the whole movie. Disney has not re-released this film to be sold in decades because of the controversy surrounding it in today's modern culture. Fear not fellow MMO-Champ viewers, I have found where you can view it online and am posting it here for you to see with your own eyes. For those that have seen it, what do you think of this movie?

    Movie that Disney has "hidden away" due to being "offensive" is "offensive". News at 11. Also, if you're getting offended on someone else's behalf, you're doing it wrong.

    Brer Rabbit was one of my favourite stories as a kid.

    Damn, things made during and before Jim Crow times contained racist images? Who could have guessed?

    I've seen it in it's entirety in the theaters when I was a kid. I barely remember it. But I can tell you they have a big log flume ride dedicated to it at the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in FL.

    I loved the crows in Dumbo. Decades later I learned about racism from watching how the left treats women and minorities like helpless children. I still love the crows though.

    Let's figure out the names of everyone who worked with this and their families names so we can destroy their lives and careers....

    I thought Disney gets a free pass because they are a progressive company and Black Panther and all that...
