I wonder if e really means what he says when he speaks of the “entire Disney motion picture library”... I’m looking at you Song of the South!

It's like the House of Mouse just had to carry out their own version of the Black Dinner ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clan_Douglas#Black_Dinner ) (It's the historical event that the Red Wedding was based on).

So I haven’t seen Dumbo since I was a kid and had to go read up on the Jim Crow scene. Now I can remember it (and even remember the tune of the song they sing) and have to wonder; how does the film even work without it? The crows are the ones who teach him to fly!

That would be a more palatable choice than excising the scene altogether, but I’d rather just have the film as it was made. I’m a fan of preserving history rather than changing it to suit modern tastes. It frustrates me that people are too dumb to understand that a film (or any artwork) is a time capsule from when it was originally released and may present ideas to which we no longer adhere. It’s something to learn from; not ban, hide away, or forget (unless you WANT to repeat that ugly aspect of history). Perhaps the best option would be to offer viewers the option of the original version or a sanitized version at their own choice.

^ I think there's a difference though when it comes to streaming media. I think streaming is just a substitute for cable or renting movies, so it makes sense, for instance, to remove the racist bits from Tom and Jerry cartoons because the primary audience is intended not to be adult fans but rather children. I also think unedited versions should be available for purchase for hardcore fans and the like and otherwise be preserved. Unfortunately, major studios don't seem to favor this extensive availability of their properties, which I feel is the actual problem.

is there any scenario where Disney as a company be broken up into smaller pieces?

^ You need a Roosevelt for that!
