Disney warns: Petr Pan and the elephant Dumbo are also racist

A warning will appear for 12 seconds at the beginning of the fairy tale.

“This program contains negative images or ill-treatment of people and cultures. These stereotypes were bad then and are bad today. Rather than removing them, we want to acknowledge their detrimental impact, learn from it and launch a debate together to create a more inclusive future. Disney is committed to creating stories with inspiring and ambitious themes that reflect the rich diversity of human experience around the world. ”

For example, in a cartoon cat in the fairy tale Aristokočky (Shon Gon), they revealed a racist caricature of people from East Asia. He has an overbite, slanted eyes and sings with the wrong accent, in addition, the cat is dubbed by a white man.

Petr Pan is said to be insulting the American Indians. It shows them stereotypically, it does not reflect authentic cultural traditions. In the film, they speak an incomprehensible language and are still called “redheads”.

Although criticism of old films such as North vs. South has been made by the American media many times, this time Disney + is criticizing its current products for the first time.
An article recently appeared on the Variety server that Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Forrest Gump are also harmful.

Forrest Gump is reportedly benevolent to AIDS patients and Vietnam veterans and hostile to various activists and underground culture. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is incorrect because it stereotypically depicts India and Hindu customs. Exotic “negatives” are portrayed as primitive and bloodthirsty.
