but wait, there’s more.

nope, not done yet. 

hold on… almost done

oh trust me, I can go on. 

Yeah, Nicki Minaj seems like a terrible role model to me. 

I said I didn’t know exactly, but sometimes people lost arms or legs through accidents or didn’t have them for other reasons.

My son instantly said, “Gobber (from How to Train Your Dragon) lost his arm AND his leg and now he has to use tools in their places!”

I kind of collected my jaw and said, “That’s right, and that man is just like Gobber. There’s a special word we use for those kinds of tools. It’s ‘prosthetics’.”

"Prosthetics," said my son, with satisfaction, and on we went without any further discussion about it.

But then we got on the bus, and there was a young black woman with her hair pulled back in a big floofy afro ponytail, and my son, who has seen the trailers for the new Annie movie, said, in delight, “She has hair like Annie’s!”

“Let me tell you something, a lot of people talk about Walt in negative ways. There was nothing negative about Walt Disney,” he says. “He was dedicated to doing great things. He reached for the stars all the time. He was a wonderful, wonderful boss.”

A quote from Robert Sherman (Richard Sherman’s brother) from the book How to Be Like Walt: Capturing the Disney Magic Every Day of Your Life

"Walt was sensitive to people’s feelings… He hated to see people mistreated or discriminated against. One time, Richard and I overheard a discussion between Walt and one of his lawyers. This attorney was a real bad guy, didn’t like minorities. He said something about Richard and me, and he called us ‘these Jew boys writing these songs.’ Well, Walt defended us, and he fired the lawyer. Walt was unbelievably great to us."

As to the old Disney films, I’m going to borrow squigglydigg's words from a different reblog chain of this post because they said it perfectly: 

"By modern standards, nobody will argue with you—yes, those things are considered racist today. When those movies were made, however, they were simply seen as stereotypes—nothing more than the typical guy = masculine, girl = feminine stereotypes that continue to prevail today.  They were inaccurate, yes (just like the gender stereotypes), and offensive to certain people, but during their day they were seen as nowhere near as bad as they are today. I’m not saying that these depictions are “okay” at all or that they aren’t racist. What I AM saying is that, when these movies were made, people wouldn’t necessarily see them as racist."

Not to mention the fact that Walt Disney wasn’t the only person working on the films put out by Disney Studios. And although he was incredibly involved in the making of early films like Snow White, Pinocchio, Bambi, etc, as time went on, there was a lot to focus on with WW2, an industry strike, and eventually the work on Disneyland and the TV show that went along with it. Walt Disney couldn’t stand over his artist’s shoulders and give 100% of his attention to everything they were doing.

Also, you mention the Jungle Book. Walt Disney did not come up with the idea for that movie. It was based on a book written long before Disney Studios got their hands on it. Likewise, Walt Disney passed away from lung cancer while that movie was still in production, so it’s not really one you can blame on Walt Disney. (Song of the South was also not an original Disney story, though I’ll let you have that one. If they wanted to make a film about African American folktales, there was definitely a better way to go about it. Semi-related fun fact: James Baskett received an honorary academy award for his role as Uncle Remus in Song of the South, making him the first African American man to win an oscar. So at least some good came out of that film.) 

Walt Disney hired people who were African American, Jewish, Hispanic, and women (it was Walt Disney who said “If a woman can do the work as well, she is worth as much as a man. The girl artists have the right to expect the same chances for advancement as men, and I honestly believe they may eventually contribute something to this business that men never would or could.”) in a time when prejudice against these groups was even worse than is now.

And I tried to forget When I left this town But it takes me right back When I come back around. Retrace the steps we took when we met, worlds away Counting backwards while the stars are falling Retrace the steps we took on that lost summer night I’m back there by your side.
