I’m sharing this especially for everyone who claims that there is no racism, that some alleged American political correctness would be destroying the entertainment industry (especially Disney).

Personally, I believe that history should never be erased, no matter how uncomfortable it might be, or we will never able to learn from past mistakes. I think that “Song of the South” should be distributed for free, with a proper disclaimer, and with a PG-rating. No profit should be made out of it, hence I agree on the Splash Mountain re-theming.
