Disney

to whom it may concern, after watching the various videos regarding disney and its effect on the young children of today, i feel that all the thoughts are quite acurate. Disney prevays messages that do not correalate to real life situations and make kids think that the world operates in much different ways than in reality. disney also sends out images that are sexist and racist which will lead kids to believe that these ideals are acceptable in every day life. disney sends the wrong messages to young girls about what they are expected to do later in life and how they are supposed to present themselves. disney makes it seem that all women are meant to grow up to be beautiful little princesses that cook clean and do everything their husbands want. also, in many of their movies they portray racist ideals. for example in dumbo, the black crows are meant to represent african americans in society, and in the movie they are lazy and stand around doing nothing. i feel that this is extremely inappropriate and a horrible influence to children who have not been able to create their own ideas on society.
