A forgotten gem and part of the "Censored Eleven," banned since the 1960's.

Main characters:
  • Coal Black, a parody of Snow White.
  • Prince Chawmin’, a prince who attempts to rescue Coal Black.
  • The Sebben Dwarfs, portrayed as zoot-suit-wearing caricatures.
I guess a live action remake is out of the question on this one:D

is this the 2025 Disney remake? No wonder Rachael Zegler was so excited about it:

Made in 1943. So much has changed in the past 81 years. If this was made today and marketed as "woke" it would be welcomed with open arms.

We need things like this in circulation because too many people don’t realize how far we have come, and regressed recently, in terms of racial representations and relations.

I am one of those that grew up believing “there is only one race, the human race” except everyone changed their minds about later now I am working on being more racist and racist in my views so as not to be even more of an outcast than I already am.
