Disney removed Song of the South for what reason?
With a film full of racial stereotypes—a sharecropper, not a slave—slurs, and other material that would not have been well received by everyone when it was first released, it is now an even bigger issue in light of current social justice movements and would only incite further backlash against the studio if it were to be rereleased, this scene represents nothing that appeared in the original movie, but Uncle Remus refuses to tell the union officers the whereabouts of his friends.
Contrary to what has been claimed, the NAACP did not forbid the film. However, there hasn’t been any official “banning” taking place anywhere. The NAACP did express their unhappiness with the portrayal of African Americans in the movie, which should have instantly motivated them to start creating movie scripts even when Song of the South was being made.
