Clip from "Dumbo"

 This clip shows the Roustabouts singing and working. Is this the correct portrayal of the struggle of slavery?

We asked the Junior High about a specific quote: "We work all day. We work all night. We've never learned to read or write. We're Happy-hearted roustabouts!" These are all of the responses we received.

I don't think it's racist or wrong. If they want to know about slavery, then this is spot on, but if this is unintentional, then they could've had a more mixed group of kids.

I think that is somewhat racist, and when little kids are observing the people and hear the words, they are going to expect all black people to do this and work for them, which we DEFINITELY AREN'T going to do.

We work hard all day and night, but we're still happy? No, that is NOT a good portrayal of slavery.

This makes people believe that black people that had to work a lot are happy to work. In truth, you wouldn't be happy if you had to do hard labor, but this movie makes it look like you do.

This makes kids believe that African American people like to work and don't care about freedom or racism.
