Tom and Jerry take a trip to Africa. Racism ensues.
From Wikipedia, for people who are confused:
Tom and Jerry were fictional characters that starred in a series of early sound cartoons produced by the Van Beuren Studios. The series lasted from 1931 to 1933. When Official Films purchased the Van Beuren library in the 1950s, the characters were renamed Dick and Larry to avoid confusion with the famous cat and mouse team of the same name. Today, animation historians refer to the characters as Van Beuren's Tom and Jerry.

  • by using the current sentiments found in society of FUCKING 1932. I mean jesus, before posting some shit like that in the comments remember what the world was like at the time this was made. Trying to forget about stuff like this or just dismiss it as racist is idiotic and ignorant. This stuff happened, it was around...lets not repeat it, but lets DEFINITELY not forget it. I'll spare everyone the cliche about why remember history is important, but it applies perfectly here.

  • And no one can say white people made US slaves because im pretty damn sure not one person on here is over 200 years old

see all

  • I'm not sure if the fact that this doesn't bother me means that I'm used to/ignore racism, or that I've just been educated about history enough that I'm aware of the different social conditions in which cartoons like this were made...

    On another note: those skeletons were pretty cool.

  • @BlindmelonKen It sure is! O_O

  • 6:00-6:20 This is what nightmares are made of.

  • They had to do what they had to do at the time!

  • "Gettin to af fo ka" lol

  • This cartoon made me laugh. Yes, it's old, but still is very funny!

  • These are the kinds of things I think about every time I hear one of the tea baggers talk about taking their country back.
