@abletothink you said something about "squaw is the Native American word for cunt." There is no "Native American" language you moron, each tribe/region/etc has it's own language and dialect. The Blackfoot language is not the same as the Apache, which is not the same as the Mohican, which is not the same as the Pottawatomie, and so on and so forth. Furthermore, "Squaw" is an Algonquin word, and it means "woman", not "cunt" as you so obtusely asserted.

One of the top comments says something about "squaw is the Native American word for cunt." There is no "Native American" language you moron, each tribe/region/etc has it's own language and dialect.

Oh, yeah and when I saw the movie I always taught OMG these Indians must be so important and smart because they captured the boys and the chief is mean to Peter do he must be really important, I always taught he was kind of a king of Neverlands :D And I always envied Peter cause he got the chance to smoke the holy pipe xD (when I was little, and I'm 18 now and still think they are so awesomely cool)

When the first brave married squaw he gave out with a big UGH when he saw his Mother-in-Law! :D Let's go back a million years to the very first Injun prince he kissed a maid and start to blush! AND YOU FIND THIS RACIST? I find it awesome, It was like in the 50s and for the 50s this is extremely NOT RACIST! Its not even racist for 2012 :D Its CUTE! And this cartoon makes Indians look BLOODY AWESOME JUST LOOK AT PRINCESS TIGER-LILY!! Even Peter is in to her! <3

@arrestmeimwhite antisemitic is racism against jews, what has that got to do with red indians in a disney cartton?

[nicelydone31]

@rophie17 amen!

I don't consider this much racist considering that the way I see it, it was more of interpretation of what kids liked watching, Neverland is a world made for kids, and most kids had indians in part of their vivid imaginary adventures, besides even if it is racist at least it's making them look cool whereas most Black dominant films of today make the race look stupid for an example. so yeah love this regardless, get over your high horse and just watch what's good about this.

Yes, this is racist. It was made in the '50s. Everything was racist in the '50s.

Does anyone get reminded of Ron, Hermione and Lavender from Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince @ 1:37 - 1:42? I know i do.

[arrestmeimwhite]

lol i had a feeling before i clicked this video that the comments would be filled with arguements over the racial stereotyping in the scene, and those who say so are absolutely right.

but anyone smart enough to see that should also be smart enough to read the date that this movie was made, 1953, enough said

its no secret disney was as antisemitic as they came in those days, but does that really take away from the fact that these movies are eternal gems of animation?

[commentmutant]

hahahaha Stupid fucking wagon burners, thats what you get for being such useless people. Just like the Africans, The Mexicans had temples with gold to wipe their asses with. You indian alcoholics are fucking redundant..

@rophie17 Check your fucking privilege buddy, this entire scene reeks of racist stereotypes that can't be considered anything BUT offensive.
