Alice Talks/Rants about the New Disney Princess movie

I was happy to hear that Disney has finally listened to reason and has desided to make a new princess movie using 2-D animation.

What I wasn't happy about was all the crap and stupid racist idea going on about this movie that AREN'T there!

As African Americans we don't want to see our first princess to be a slave. That's a sterotype of blacks being low class and Maddy is a rascist name for blacks it's like her name was Sarama but when they took her from Africa they called her Maddy. We don't want her having to sever white people because she's viewed as being a nigger. she has no rights because of her color. We been througth slavery and racism already we don't want to see a reflection of it in a disney movie.

no, your ancestor went through slavery. Not you.

And I've met someone called Maddy, I imagine she's not planning to change it anytime soon. Also Maid's aren't slave's. It's a paid job, more then what cinderalla got. Actually with her new role Tiana pretty much has the same job only in a different work situation. Hell she has two job's now!

Oh course it's just my opinion.

Yeah but Cinderella was a maid because of her stepmother's envey but for an african american in the 1920's she is veiwed badly on mostly whites. There were No Blacks Allowed' in places. And if Disney went with the old idea to make it real then she would be treated badly by every one because of her color. She would not get fair pay as a white.

And blacks even today go througth racism it's still out there. You see it in the media. And our image isn't always good. We're still tryin to over come.

Why do people assume that if she had been a maid Disney would have go the neo-realism root?

Also I've been raised in a multicultural City and if you went up to a person of African origin there with your agument they'd roll their eye's at you. It's a Kid's movie.

stop turning it into a perverse mascot to a movement that was won fourty years ago when the reason racism hasn't gone away is because EVERYONE keep's using the term's 'White, Black', Us, Them' and won't shut up about it.

Are we counting Atlantis or the Little Mermaid? Because the girl in Atlantis (forgot her name) wasn't White but Milo was. And Ariel was a completely different species from Eric. Oh, and the Beast wasn't pretty until the last five minutes, so it's not like he and Belle looked alike. And in both of the Pocahontas movies she ended up with a White guy, even turning down a fellow American Indian in the first movie. Also, Esmeralda and Phoebus were in totally different classes.

Its gone on for far too long and as she said, these nitpickings are just outrageous. But people are so afraid of looking racist that theyll change a work of art into total crap as long it doesnt offend some hypersensitive racist blacks. Yes, racism works both ways. Blacks didnt care about Snow White and Cinderella being servants, why should we care about Tiana?

As was mentioned, it makes a BETTER STORY! And this is our LAST CHANCE to bring 2-D back--it can be nothing less than the BEST. D:<

Your accent is AWESOME!

[KittyfantasticoFTW]

I was unable to pay attention to what you were saying because I was too busy trying to work out if you have an English accent or an Australian accent...

[darthvalor07]

So.... Did you have a chance to see The Princess and the Frog yet?

[tierz2]

How many times have you had skittles thrown out a school bus at you and been told to get out of the city you grew up in because of your color? How many times have you had groups of people shun you because you were the wrong color? How many times have you not even bothered trying out for a play because there were no parts for your color?

This is the life I grew up with, and I am white.

I am the minority in my neighborhood.

The only thing keeping racism alive is people like you.

I saw the movie and she wasn't a big shot singer person she was a poor waitress so I thought that was a nice compromise to all the idiots who think that being a black maid is racist.

[KeveniveK21]

and you nevver will get it because youre white

[bettybanggg]

Your awesome

I want to marry you

Please?

[Xirbtt]

Hurray! You're obviously awesome!

I agree with you all the way.

[Kukilunestar]

I'm not.

In fact, I preferred Maddie more. Even though I'm used to it now, Tiana kinda seemed kinda...tacky when I first heard it. Also, It's not slavery. In fact, it's rather accurate considering the time period. And obviously, you don't know a lot about New Orleans. Yes, they did have Black only signs, but it was a lot more lax than most people think.

Hell, there were more black people owning slaves in Louisiana than any other state. And even so, it's a different time period all together.
