So I think it's tremendous that Disney is finally making an animated film with a black Princess, I mean it's surely about time, but I think it's a bit sad the amount of pressure one film must go under before it's even finished; again, those self-appointed spokepeople for the African-American community had problems with everything from the title, to the race of the Prince, etc. I just can't help but think, if you make it too difficult to easily make a film that includes minorities then they will continue to be a rarity- we need to ease up on the racist card, and the homophobic card. Everybody needs to lighten up. Still, I think it's important this film is getting made, no matter what changes from here until release... well, as long as that race of the Princess doesn't.
Disney's 'subservient' black princess animates film critics!!
