Zip-A-Dee-Doo-NOT

When I was seven or eight years of age in the 1950s, my mother and I  entered an ornate theater lobby downtown, looking forward to a matinee showing of a 1946 Walt Disney movie entitled, Song of the South.

Not only was I mesmerized as a child by Disney's then most elaborate attempt at blending cartoon characters in with real people on film, but I saw something I had never seen during my few years living in a white rural area -- a black man named Uncle Remus.

My "discovery" was no big deal, but I do remember taking an instant liking to Uncle Remus, wishing he were my uncle as he spent movie time singing and making others feel good.  Oh, to be a child again. . .

Bam!  2023, here we are, our often regimented lives enforced to accept wrong over right, and the Disney conglomerate has decreed Song of the South racist, as it removes popular movie-inspired ride "Splash Mountain" which was a cornerstone of Disneyland for decades.  No more Uncle Remus, either, as Disney's erasers and woke race detectives continue finding reasons to obliterate history and truth in exchange for an agenda-ridden fantasy world of "fun."  Uncle Remus must be degraded, apparently just not vocally militant enough to belong anymore -- and he certainly provided no message to future black America by neglecting to sing hip-hop or rap in 1946, before these often vulgar formats were even a thing.

Many years ago, just before LP records were seemingly on the way out (apparently only a temporary phenomenon) as digital disc recordings (CDs) began showing up on store shelves and gaining popularity, Disneyland Records had released re-issue LPs of several Disney movie music soundtracks.  Among them was Song of the South, though with Uncle Remus and his name featured more prominently at the top of the LP one might have thought his name was the movie's actual title.

The album's liner notes (shown below) tell the story of the motion picture and its concept, and there isn't an ounce of racism here.  Pity, too, that not only would Disney's censoring ministry of truth deprive us of James Baskett's (Uncle Remus) beloved song, Zip-A-Dee-Doo-Dah, but apparently we're not even to hold famous Gone with the Wind actress Hattie McDaniel in high regard for her song, Sooner or Later.
Walt Disney (or his head) would be spinning in light of all the notoriously un-Disney actions perpetrated using his name. Mickey Mouse has left the house, kicked to the street with an old black man who simply isn't the right kind of black to serve a Woke agenda.

Covid Roulette: Reports pouring in make it pretty much conclusive -- almost everything the government has told us about Covid, masks and the like was wrong.  No surprise there.  Ivermectin, hydroxychloroquin and other alleged cures may not be out of the question, either, per medical reports from doctors at last un-muzzled from the control of leftist media and political rats.

A note about links:  I removed America's Frontline Doctors because they apparently removed their news page.  I know there was a lawsuit, successfully found in their favor, but perhaps other issues are at play.  However, I did add The Washington Times (NOT to be confused with the Post) to the link list, a site you should check every day, along with revolver.news.

Begone!  It's high time for Black History Month and Gay Pride Day or Week (or Eternity) to go away.  Historical information can now freely be accessed online for those with an interest, so it is no longer necessary to rub everybody's face in these mass media events from which there is almost no escape.  If we insist upon putting history out there, let's make it ALL about history of the world and nation.  Who knows?  Maybe kids who don't even know that World War II even existed will learn the essentials just in time for World War III.
