Like many people, I saw the wonderful Disney feature "Song Of The South" as a child. It had been many decades since, and I heard some controversy about it's purported racism, so I thought it might be interesting to watch it again. Time passed, and by the time I got around to attempting to watch it, I could not find it.

I couldn't rent it.

I couldn't easily buy it.

I admit, I was frankly puzzled by by this. In my memory, it seemed (for example) that the color of the most famous character (Uncle Remus) became far less significant than the love for a character who seemed just wonderful to a kid's sensibilities. He was an old guy all of us seemed to have somewhere during those years of our lives.

So, I was confused, and reading this article, it is pretty clear my memory is not wrong on this. A character such as Uncle Remus commanded such affection and respect from the viewers, regardless of his color, or their color.

It’s a great fun kids movie with a good wholesome story. I watched it two weeks ago on Bitchute and you can still find it there. There is nothing at all “waccis” about this movie.

"No, no - I mean a REAL song, like "Camptown Races".

"Camptown Races"? Don't know if I've ever heard it - how does it go"?

My parents took us to see it. The child
in me enjoyed it tremendously. Never got around to purchase a copy when released for sale (was, however, in line to purchase the beautifuly made, FANTASIA, which is still watched to this day.)

Enjoy the movie and the memories.....

Uncle Ben and Aunt Jemima too; pleasant, smiling folks providing sustenance.
