Remember the song 'Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah?' Disney is banishing the Oscar-winning film it came from
When Disney+ launches its streaming service in November, we’ll be able to watch Bambi and Snow White whenever we want. But there’s one film that will be noticeably absent.
Disney+ won’t include the 1946 film Song of theSouth because it’s crazy racist. In other words, Song of the South will stay in the way back of the Disney Vault, gathering cobwebs, where it will hopefully be forgotten.
The live action-animation film depicts African-Americans after the Civil War in a very problematic way, which is why Disney is trying to keep the film under wraps.
Disney+ won’t remove Dumbo from its library, but it also won’t be releasing the full version of the film.
A scene featuring the film’s black crows (including one named Jim Crow, as in the racist Jim Crow segregation laws) singing “When I See an Elephant Fly” will be nixed because it's, you know, also racist. The scene was also removed from the live action Dumbo remake, because it’s 2019. We don’t want our movies to be racist anymore.

In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Or it’s fake news.
I hope so.

Re: this is just going to far
The movie Song of The South was controversial even in its day, it's not just now that it's considered suddenly racist as your post implies. Disney never even released it for home video in the US!
Seriously, do just the tiniest bit of research before posting utter drivel dressed up in faux-2019 outrage at PC-snowflakes.
Facts and context, they are relevant things.
