FeministDisney on Youtube
feministdisney:
Okay. So I would like to foray into youtube to make ideas more accessible to people who don’t engage with text as much. So if you’d like to help out, read on.
I don’t want any FeministDisney videos to be me reading cue cards. I would actually like to feature other people if possible, but it depends on participation. And also my ability to figure out how to edit videos together...

Anonymous asked: I saw your reblog about the the doll color test performed on a white girl and I was wondering how you would talk about race/racism to a child? I agree it is needed, I just don't know how you would go about it...
Anonymous asked: So "Mickey and the Magical Map" premiered for press tonight at Dland, and it looks like the ladies featured in the princess medley segment are Mulan, Pocahontas, and Rapunzel, and the finale of the whole show is a Tiana riverboat segment :).

Blogs for People of Color

All these blogs are run by PoC. And where made for PoC or specifically for ppl in their own respective communities but they are also good for other PoC to follow. Some of these are really informative. Please read all the blogs “About” and “FAQs”, go through the tags, etc. before sending messages. If I missed any blogs…then I’ll make another list…

Anonymous asked: So I just heard on my dash that Disney pulled out the Merida redesign because of the backlash. Did they do the same for some of the others in the line like Pocahontas or Mulan? Or did they get stuck with being paler and the forever 21 earrings and all that? :/

Dear Merida Supporters,
irresistible-revolution:
feministdisney:
lipsredasroses:
Merida is NOT a good role model because she is not “traditionally feminine.” She IS a good role model because she learns from her mistakes, is fiercely loyal to herself and family, will do anything to protect her mother (at the end of the movie), and is free spirited. She is NOT a good role model because she doesn’t like to wear fancy...

Effects Of Thinking White People Are “All Like That”:
Literally nothing other than white people having their feelings hurt on the internet
I’m not joking there is no real world consequence of this
Effects Of Thinking People of Color Are “All Like That”:
Saudi student is literally surrounded by FBI for cooking rice under terrorist suspicions
White people literally can not...
Anonymous asked: What are your thoughts on the new live action Cinderella? To me it just looks whitewashed cause I've been comparing it to Brandy one.

xoxojaimelannister asked: Johnny Depp has also said before that he doesn't actually know what tribe he might be descended from and he won't find out because apparently it's depressing to think that he "might be the product of terrible rape". I love Johnny most of the time, but this whole thing with Tonto is just making me side-eye him pretty hard....
logic-and-art asked: I saw the Lone Ranger trailer for the first time today and the fact that Johnny Depp was playing a Native American character frustrated me to no end. BUT I've heard rumors that he is part Cherokee - do you know anything about this/have an opinion on the matter?
Anonymous asked: "Am I imagining things, or is Merida's redesign creating more controversy than Mulan or Pocahontas' did? Ugh." I totally agree! Merida's redesign had an article about it on the Daily Mail NEWS website, but I didn't see anything about Mulan or Pocahontas anywhere but on tumblr!

If you are part of a privileged group and have to constantly demand that somebody in an oppressed group say “not all (insert privileged group here) are like that”
what you are really demanding is that they reassure you that you’re not like that and you’re not being held accountable
which is a cowardly thing to do and also shows the great lengths you...

The most alarming about the vinylmation disney toys is that they placed the most well-known character for sudden anger and temper tantrums (Donald Duck) as the “Indian Chief”
This is just the same gross display of the stereotype of Angry Indian Chief that Disney applied in Peter Pan.
And yes these are recent toys.

To all those people who want to be face characters in Disney. I want you guys to realize that even though they have a great job, and probably the funnest job, they also have one of the hardest jobs.
Especially the princesses, and Ariel. Ariel used to have stalkers, and people will sexually harass them. Lots of Disney princesses get groped and have their dresses unzipped while they...
