PopMatters, as of this morning, is featuring, on its front page, my essay on the historical implications of Disney's upcoming return to 2-D animation (which is originally what drew me into the topic, but the controversy surrounding the first black Disney princess was too juicy to ignore) . All I know is that those hours I wasted as kid popping in Disney VHS after Disney VHS have turned out to be good for something, sort of. So which is is it: pop-culture minutiae or trenchant commentary on the state of American race relations? OR BOTH? You decide.
