This thread is very thought provoking. Interesting that Hollywood continues to put out a movie, almost yearly, depicting the Holocaust, or referencing it, yet no one calls for the end of these movies that depict hurtful times. We usually address these movies as a learning experience we don't want to repeat. So why do we not approach our previous sins if slavery the same way? Discuss how we use this as a reminder of how far we have come as a nation. We still have changes to make, but we are moving in the right direction. Should we not band all movies depicting slavery then? Why does no one call for that, if the subject is painful? Where do we stop?
As I stated in a previous post, this is a ride that has long waits because it is enjoyable and fun. Its not a ride about slavery, just silly old rabbit. I usually have that happy song stuck in my head for hours after. How is that a bad thing? Just enjoy it for what it is!
