The producers wanted Louis Armstrong to play the King Louie role, but feared it would be considered racist.

“When you wish upon a star
Makes no difference who you are...”

Yeah, that sounds racist to me.

If only black people liked jazz there wouldn’t be any.

Actually, my mother was on to JB back in the ‘60s and didn’t want us to watch it for just this reason.

So tell me what group of people like rap music and what group of people like country music? Why do these people keep trying to drag race into everything? I’m so sick of it!

He looks like a pasty white moron.

As a youngster, I learned the trumpet. I aspired to be as good as my hero, Louie Armstrong. My buddies even called me "Satchmo". That was the highlight of my short career.

Even today, when I hear a trumpet player, I mentally compare him to Louie Armstrong. Does that make me a racist?

"I want to be like you" sung by Louis Prima.

In the world of the modern Left, if you aren’t being overtly racist to promote non-whites, then you are clearly a racist.

I suppose the learned professor thinks blacks have “natural rhythm”.

Just remake “The Jungle Book” and make it true to Kipling.

Movies & TV today which are aimed at an audience younger than 18 seem to start with Barney/Sesame Street then a brief transition through Shrek then jump right into the whole vampire/zombie mess.

There are exceptions to this morass of junk. Pixar comes up with some good ones - “Up” springs to mind.

Back in the hey-day of movie theater attendance, studios would serialize movies of various heroes and other characters. Kids (and adults) looked forward to the latest adventures and escapes of their heroes. We also have that today. Look at the successes of the Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Ironman and X-Men franchises.

Produce the Jungle Book(s) as a series. The full Mowlgi story, Toomai of the Elephants, Riki-Tiki-Tavi and all the rest. Make them accurately follow Kipling. Give the little kids the “Just So Stories”. Kipling is evenhanded in his treatment of Indians of various castes, the colonial British and the various animals. Each has good characters and also their share of idiots and scoundrels. There are no “African-Americans” or LGBTQRXYZs, so the grievance industry hopefully will go elsewhere.

A question for the Super Jenius Professor: how, exactly, does a child of the Indian sub-continent (Mowgli) represent the white race? This statement reflects willful ignorance of the source of the fable. Wonder if the lib professor now has Aesop's Fables in his sights to gin up some kind of racial irritation?

I guess I wonder how this makes news. Why don’t we interview a bag lady and ask her opinion of Wall Street quarterly gains and publish that? The dif is the bag lady isn’t teaching out kids...something the PARENTS pay for. Root cause? Parents paying for such a person to teach THEIR kids.

I love jazz ... and I’m so white I could blind people.

This clown probably listens to Barbra Streisand and Celine Dion.

Apparently, when Mowgli meets the Ape King, young children are being brainwashed with Disney-Technicolor to hate African Americans… King Louie, after all, is a representation of the American Negro...

King Louie was voiced by Louis Prima...

Prima was from a musical family in New Orleans. His father, Anthony Prima, was the son of Leonardo Di Prima, a Sicilian immigrant from Salaparuta, while his mother, Angelina Caravella, had immigrated from Ustica as a baby

(Oh, which reminds me: Baloo appears to be a welfare king, judging by his signature song. That’s not racist, is it?)

And what about Bagheera, a black panther?

Disney IS racist. If they weren’t they’d re-release “Song of the South”
