New Cartoon Features Black Kids Singing Song About Reparations America ‘Owes’ Black Americans
>
Disney has been criticized for waking up yet again after a new cartoon series features black children rapping about reparations, saying ‘slaves built this country’.
The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder has sparked outrage by showing the characters finding out that their town was built by slaves and then giving a performance at their school.
As part of the rap, which has been called “blatant anti-white propaganda,” a white character is seen standing on a stage holding a sign that reads “not yet atoned for.”
It echoes the current situation in California, with a reparations board insisting that every long-term black resident receive $5 million in reparations.
During the episode, the characters, who are predominantly black, rule that Abraham Lindon did not wish to end slavery, so they petition to have his statue removed.

But it has sparked a major backlash among viewers, who have accused the broadcasting giant of “broadcasting aroused BLM propaganda right into their living rooms.”
Others began using the hashtag #BoycottDisney after seeing the footage, which also shows police officers in riot gear showing up at their protest.
In the episode, Penny learns the meaning of Junteenth and discovers a “terrifying truth” about the town: that it was founded by a slave owner.
Part of the show’s rap, which is aimed at a younger audience, reads: And we, the descendants of slaves in America, have earned the reparations to continue.
“And continue to win reparations every moment we spend mired in the systemic bias, racism, and white supremacy that America was founded on and still hasn’t atoned for.”
Once the scene ends, the rest of the school erupts in applause and then a protest for Abraham Lincoln is planned, with the characters deciding that something must be done.

They were shocked to discover that ‘Lincoln was not against slavery’ and wondered why they were not told this sooner.

It turns into a confrontation between the police and the boys, one of whom yells “stand your ground” and a police officer pushes a black bystander.
One viewer said it was “nothing short of wake up propaganda” while another said “imagine paying money to Disney to teach your kids to hate themselves and comb their country.”
Fox News contributor Rob Smith said: “When The Proud Family was made 15 years ago, it was a sweet and funny cartoon comedy about a black family.
‘Rebooted by Disney+ in the Woke Era, now it’s this. The reboot also features an interracial gay couple with a child…why?’.

‘This country was built on slavery’ was continuously recited throughout the rap.

The rap video included real-life mixed takes on the cartoon.
Historical shots were shown throughout the cartoon.
The lyrics claimed that slave labor built the United States of America.
Others were quick to suggest that Disney be banned, with one even suggesting that Elon Musk should buy the platform.
It is the last accusation that is made
The giant has taken numerous steps to become more inclusive in recent years, including changing the park’s policy to prevent staff from using gender salutations and implementing an anti-racism training course for employees.
They have also given old characters progressive makeovers and removed offensive images from attractions and movies.
It included a gay kiss between two female characters in the movie Lightyear, and black actress Halle Berry was cast as Ariel in her upcoming live-action version of The Little Mermaid.
Billionaire investor Nelson Peltz recently declared war on the company’s “overspending and mismanagement.”
The 80-year-old, whose daughter Nicola is married to Brooklyn Beckham, is now fighting to secure a seat on the board of directors, setting the stage for a spectacular showdown between him and CEO Bob Iger.
In January 2022, Disney unveiled a new “woke” look for Minnie Mouse, in which the beloved character ditched her signature red polka dot dress in favor of a “progressive” blue pantsuit designed by Stella McCartney.
Disneyland Paris unveiled the iconic character’s new outfit via Twitter, announcing that Minnie had undergone a couture makeover in honor of her 30th anniversary.
The giant has also been embroiled in a dispute with Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and the dispute started over the ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill.
Since 1967, Disney has been responsible for the government of an area known as Reedy Creek, which lies partly within Orange and Osceola counties.
Critics say the deal gives the firm special legal and tax privileges.
DeSantis launched an effort to change Disney’s self-governance powers after the company’s former CEO Bob Chapek condemned Florida’s educational rights bill, dubbed the Don’t Say Gay bill, which limits teaching about sex and gender identity in state classrooms.
In January, a notice posted on Osceola County’s website said legislation would be introduced to create a state-controlled board for Reedy Creek.
DeSantis’ director of communications, Taryn Fenske, told Fox News: “The corporate kingdom has come to an end.
“Under the proposed legislation, Disney will no longer control its own government, it will live under the same laws as everyone else, it will be responsible for its outstanding debts and it will pay its fair share of taxes.
“Imposing a state-controlled board will also ensure that Orange County cannot use this issue as a pretext to raise taxes on Orange County residents.”
The author of Florida’s controversial Don’t Say Gay bill told DailyMail.com in December that the state will not back down in its fight against Disney.
Florida state representative Randy Fine also said that in order for the media giant to mend its relationship with Florida, the studio must stop producing awakening movies.
Disney CEO Bob Iger made a shock return to the role in November after it was reported that the board received multiple complaints about Chapek.
Chapek was reportedly reprimanded for Disney’s confused reaction to the Don’t Say Gay bill. Initially, the company did not comment on the bill, but under pressure, Chapek eventually condemned it.
