Uncle Remus is a fictional title character and narrator of a collection of African American folktales. The folktales were compiled and adapted by Joel Chandler Harris and published in book form in 1881.
Harris’s fictionalized storyteller, Uncle Remus, was a “human syndicate” whom he had admittedly “walloped together” from several Black storytellers he had met while working from 1862 to 1866 as a printing compositor on Joseph Addison Turner’s Turnwold Plantation, outside Eatonton, in Putnam County.
James Franklin Baskett portrayed Uncle Remus in the 1946 Disney feature film Song of the South and was given an Honorary Academy Award in 1948 for his portrayal of Remus. Joel Chandler Harris was the creator of the folk character Uncle Remus
Even though I knew all the songs, the characters, and the stories, I had never actually seen the movie.
Now that I have seen it, I understand completely why the Left hates it.
It shows people of both races interacting with each other, like the black boy and the white one, as kids are wont to do.
It shows a tender black man who doesn’t seem to harbor hate in his heart for anyone of any color, is full of wisdom, and could be anyone’s grandfather...of any color.

My family used to live in the Orlando area, so we went to Walt Disney World more than once. When my daughter was a kid, Splash Mountain was her favorite ride, and we usually planned going on it first, because of the long lines.
