The producers do not tolerate or support racism in any form. In fact, they find racism to be abhorrent. This is merely a look at how blacks have been portrayed in the past using historical film clips.
Every race, ethnicity, creed, gender, lifestyle, etc has it's stereotypes. Gay interior decorators, Chinese laundry, Hispanic gardeners, Irish cops, Italian gangsters, etc...
These images are just a small sampling of how black people have been portrayed on a daily basis for many, many years. The seven second scene that starts at 1:40 was not meant to be in the final edit. It was used as a "marker" for several shorter shots and was accidentally left in. I'm am working on a newer version, to help clean-up several editing errors. All of the clips used in this film were shown on television up until the 1980's.
Many episodes of the Little Rascals have been "ethnically cleansed" over the years. Some 20 minute episodes were edited down to a mere 8 after removing all racial images/slurs. Several episodes were removed completely from the series.
All of the major studios, produced both live-action films and cartoons portraying blacks in this manner. Stereotypes thrived on film as comic relief.
These films are a product of their times and while certainly not suitable for children, they are important historical documents. They represent a period of American history where views were very different than they are now. It is also important to remember that they were intended to be funny, not hurtful. One does not have to look far to find many other examples of racial stereotyping in popular media in the first half of the 20th century. Radio shows, movies, and comic strips were filled with caricatures of Blacks, Native Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Jews, and every other minority.
It is to our great credit that we have evolved as far as we have since then, but we should preserve our history and not try to rewrite it in some Orwellian attempt to excise those parts of it that we now find abhorrent.
As for the music, it is a modified version of Cab Calloway singing "Some of These Days" from the film soundtrack, "Forbidden Zone"

Racist Jewish Hollywood hated your guts, it's true...that was, of course, before the entertainment industry turned communist, decided to portray you as heroes, whites/southerners as ignorant retards and promote your urban murder/drug dealing as "cool", your ppl as oppressed. Funny, after White America stopped Hitler...it was dumped by Hollywood like a rag doll.
it's a fucking cartoon, you dumb asses. Do rabbits really look like Bugs Bunny? Do white people really look like elmer fudd? Do all white people talk like elmer fudd? Do old grandma's really look like "granny" - with her toothless shriveled up face and hunch back? All you fucking assholes need to chill the fuck out and jump under a fucking train and rid the world of your idiotic, hateful, repulsive, fearmongering.
