The problem is, one movie depicts African Americans in a role they
actually LIVED. It is historical. The African Americans in Gone With
The Wind aren't seen dancing and singing artificial "shuck and jive" the
way they are in "Song Of The South." I imagine if Disney ever did
re-release the film, the NAACP and other human rights groups would raise
quite a stink.
