I saw the Poll on disney and thought my comment should be a thread. Well I noticed as a kid there were never any black people in disney cartoons. I just thought it was funny ,and if this offends I don't see why.
There were black characters. Think of the birds from Dumbo or Uncle Remus the story-telling slave or the apes from Jungle Book or the shoe-shining centaur thing from Fantasia...Some bullets said:Well I noticed as a kid there were never any black people in disney cartoons.
Uncle Remus the story-telling slave... kinda redundent lolAvsJoe said:There were black characters.

Yup. Ol' Walt was racist alright.
Yeah, most where set in places where if they had included blacks, it would have been out of place. I don't think just because they didn't have Blacks in their films they are racist. I don't have any Black friends, does that make me a racist? No, of course not.GodofMadness said:hmmmm, I suppose it was before everything had to be politicly Correct. besides in most of the Animated movie's, it was mostly set in Medieval "Europe", so any other nationally would be out of place.
Don't forget Jim Crow.AvsJoe said:There were black characters.

I am just saying the complete lack of black people in the movie overall seems racist along with some indivdual movies. As to the snow white good catch lolkatsa5 said:All? I don't remember Snow White and the Seven Dwarves being racist. And if the pricess' name is the racist joke; you're a real jerk.
And neither was Sleeping Beauty.
Nor Bambi.
Niether was Black Cauldron (look it up!)
Whoops. I did forget about him. Thanks for pointing that out. The dragon was black from Sleeping Beauty if you can squeeze a racist joke out of that as well.orannis62 said:Don't forget Jim Crow.AvsJoe said:There were black characters.

Not Disney as a whole, but Walt himself. Look it up.katsa5 said:And Disney is not Anti-Semite, because Judaism is the only mentioned religion ever on the Disney Programs. Example; Gordo from Lizzy McQuire.
But alladin wasn't black he was middle easternAqualung said:Well, they're making a movie with their first black princess now.
And what do you mean by 'classic'? Does Aladdin qualify there? Because I wouldn't call that racist.
^_^ Well aren't you just splitting hairs. Next question; should a man and the company he started be treated seperate? Hmmm.Daezd said:Not Disney as a whole, but Walt himself.
