blog 5 positivity for everyone. :))

Honestly, I have such a hard time looking at things negatively. I really have believed the best in people my whole life. So I have such a hard time thinking that the disney movies have a negative impact on children. I will be allowing my child to watch every and any disney movie there is mainly because he will be able to know right AND wrong ways to think or right and wrong views. I want him to be able to see everything so he can form an opinion on things on his own and me not chose for him. He is only about 16 months old and will let him pick his clothes out of his drawers or at the store because I want him to voice what he likes or doesnt like. I never have thought of Disney as racist and that doesnt mean they arent its just not something I thought about while watching them. I loved the music and the adventure that disney brought to my life. I think the clothes are based on the origin or location of where the movie takes place. Disney has every color and ethnicity princess and I think they tried to please everyone and did pretty well doing it. There is no way Disney can please everyone and make their character completely neutral to hurting anyones feelings. Jeff had a wonderful point in class about the lion king being mostly about the animal kingdom. Not everything has to be analyzed as racism and I do not like everything being based on race. I like to think race doesnt play a role in everything and it shouldnt play a role in anything. I might be naive but im happy thinking the world is better then making everything about color. Why cant everyone hold hands and sing along to disney! :)
