You are all full of CRAP

The movie clearly has racism in it, but we as Americans are so used to seeing this, we regard it as normal and attempt to justify it. White is always good and pure, while Black is always wrong and evil.

You may say the blond hair caused misery to her life, but the movie also shows that the blond hair is what made her special and unique, is what made people want to be around her besides her family.

Also, the reference to it smells like the color brown is completely wrong and should not have made the final cut of the movie.

All of the brown children (African-American, Latino, and Indian) and other children will associate Brown with the a disgusting smells as Flynn describes in the movie. If they were referencing poo, Flynn could've said "its smells like something you would find in a toilet" etc.

I would also like to point out, that people who are celebrating the green eyes because they think they have been underrepresented, I believe that is exactly how Blacks felt until Disney produced PATF.

Everyone would be just as upset if an African American Disney Princess Movie came out and made the evil character dress in white, or made the lightest person in skin tone noticeably evil, YOU would have a problem with it.

Wake up people and stop trying to justify something that is wrong!
