I haven’t seen the movie in many years, but, as I recall, the uncle Remus character was a positive guiding influence on the little boy, and was not an insulting stereotype of black people.

That was my impression of it when I saw it as a little white toddler. Uncle Remus was a wise elder, friendly, and a good and trustworthy person.

Progs are always looking for evil, and as they seek, they find.

The Left, since the French Jacobins in the late 18th Century, has been driven by hate in a very true variety, however they may pretend an altruistic motive. Uncle Remus stories were always associated with genuine good humor and kindly intentioned, looking to good feelings between the races.

Moreover, the cast of animal characters, in the Uncle Remus tales, reflected popular folk tales among West African tribes, strongly suggesting that the American author was truly purveying a very positive cultural image. Why would anyone want to disparage same?!
