Band from U.S. markets

I watched this movie as a child and growing up there were a few scence from this movie shown on Disney's weekly shows. This was one oth first movies that black stars won awards for and the acting was great. The story was interesting for adults and children alike. Was one of the first that had real people and cartoon charcters all blended in scenes. Several short stories that will stick with you for ever. The movie was shown in theaters over the years but during the 60's racial tension pressure during that time. Disney Studio's didn't want to get caught up in. Orginal setting for story was from slavery days in early history but none of the scenes in the movie really were around that subject at all. Disney did release overseas but never released for US markets. What a shame as would have been a great lesson for our children no matter what race, color or national back ground.
