Snow White with its Hispanic lead
at least your daughters will be able to see themselves in a big screen character.
Mine, too.
Not unless they're watching The Godfather...
It really bugs me that Disney is continually rehashing the same shit and just race swapping. It's lazy and offensive. It's literally cultural appropriation, which I'm told is really bad, but apparently not when it happens to whitey. I also hear I shouldn't care because she's a fictional character, and it's not like she's real, but then Hamilton happened and I'm told I shouldn't care about that either.
All of these conflicting messages are maddening. There's no logic.
Also, why are we ignoring the folklore of other countries? I've seen Snow White. Give me stories from other parts of the world. Where are the fables from South and Central America, Africa, Spain, Asia, etc.? Call me crazy, but Euro fables, legends, and folklore has been done to death. Let's get some new stories. You're telling me no other culture told stories?
Why haven't any woke people realized that simply race swapping Euro stories is still telling white stories?
