Disney to produce a fairytale with first black princess.

That is not exactly true! Excuse the spelling, but an animated movie was about Pocahontis, an Native American princess.

I don't mind a black princess at all. I wonder how they will do the story though. I hope they don't try to make it controversial by having the princess speak ebonics. I don't understand why people think certain groups of people talk a certain way. White people talk like they are speakin in ebonics, for goodness sake! I look forward to the movie and truly plan on seeing it.

I didn't know about this. Although, I do think that Jasmin from Aladdin was not necessarily white. I do think it is good for them to think about all races because those children might not relate as well to a white princess instead of a princess of their own race.

I just read that on yahoo new this morning. I think it will be a interesting story as all disney movies are. I do think its about time. Kids now adays i dont think are raised the way their parents and grandparents were so they dont know there really is a difference. Kids now a days gets along with all kids. I hope this makes sense.

Regardless of Pocohontas and company, who weren't white but weren't black, I understood you to mean they are going to use a black princess, as in an African. I think that is very cool, and hopefully they get the culture of origin's details correct because they made a pig's ear of Pocohontas's story. Yes, beyond past time.

that would be cute. i will definitely watch out for that. a frog princess soon to be born and hit our movie screens. that will be a hit like the other disney movies. pocahontas is not really a black princess. Jasmine also is not.
