@Anghellik9 I pretty much agree. In the 1940s, racism was an accepted part of society and like it or not, African Americans were very much associated with the jazz scene because well....they kind of invented it. You can't judge past by the standards we have today. But you CAN use it as a learning tool.

and no one mentions that the bad guy is always white

I really enjoyed the native peoples in the Tarzan TV series. They were really cool.

@NegativeOutlook4 .....WHAT?!?

Kids don't read this much into films, that's precisely the problem. Ideas are planted into their subconscious minds and affecting their lives. They don't have to be told in order to be interpreted.

kids don't read this much into films, the only reason why they would know these things is because people tell them.

5:51, Louis Prima voices King Louie, he's a SICILIAN jazz singer. Find something else to do with your lives you fucks.

I can vie for most of the movies on their racism/Sexism but I honestly can't vie for Lion King on the racism/sexim issue, all of the good characters Mufasa, Nala, and Simba(regardless of being voiced by a white person) were still Black-African Characters in their settings, and rights as Characters. The Hyena's "urban" speech is just reminisent of kids playing around, or adults behaving as kids.

@qwertyuioplkjhgfd864 No it's not the parts about women trying to tame a beast and thinking if they just stick with these bad guys they can change em girls learn that at a very early age and Disney is one of the reasons why.

@Sully64ify uhh... line

[Sully64ify]

@NegativeOutlook4 -- Uh. Yeah. Now ask yourself the rather obvious follow-up: in a world full of voice actors, why cast a black woman and a hispanic man in those roles?Why not, say, people with Texas and Kansas vocal patterns and accents, which is to say, vocal patterns that are distinctly white and middle American?

[Sully64ify]

@XxxXdeidara69XxxX -- Meh. Knowing Disney, they would make the black guy in Tarzan rather like Steppin Fetchit. So yeah, they'd have a right to bitch about it.
