The Crows from Dumbo

The crows from Dumbo. This is a group of bird which have caused some controversy. There aren't many stereotypes presented about how black people act, but there are some visual stereotypes along with a stereotypical black accent.

Not only that, one of them is named "Jim Crow", referring to the laws that limited freedom of black people.

  1. Hmmm.... I never realized this growing up. Thats very interesting especially one of the pigeons named jim crow its almost a mockery on the civil rights movement. I wish this wasnt the case where we live in a world were there is some hint of racism in cartoons. I love people and i mean ALL people.
