“Black children and their moms being able to see themselves in a Disney heroine, and that’s a powerfully admirable goal – as well as a long-overdue one...”
Right, cuz you NEVER see blacks in any roles on TV or in the movies /s
The fact of the matter is there really aren’t many roles for black people that they want to play. In many movies, shows etc. they always look like ‘add ons’ rather than fit the actual scripts. There are exceptions but generally not.
Yeah I mean they never even had Cosby and folks in an intact smart nuclear family show...or Fresh Prince in the 90s
How ‘bout the black queen who has a white son as a prince?
That left me scratching my head, TBH.
AND Poseidon having so many different daughters representing the earthly seas? Wow! He sure was “laying some pipe”.
And as for commercials, why, they're practically nonexistent! (sarc)
