Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarfs

1943 · 7 min · Directed by Robert Clampett

Spoof of 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937)' with an all-black cartoon cast. Many WWII references, including rationing (the evil Queen is a hoarder of sugar and rubber tires) and Jeep vehicles (the Sebben Dwarfs come to the rescue in three of them).

That was incredibly racist.

Period racism, stereotype, and war time patriotism all rolled into one.

i think i feel a little dirty after watching that. certainly chock full of political incorrectness. great for study of the mind of white America in the 1940s though. very strange and interesting
