What is the name of the old Disney cartoon that is now discontinued due to racism? I think it has Uncle Remus in it or something. Thanks!
 
Tar Baby (I think)

It's a story by Uncle Remus about Brer Rabbit outwitting Brer Fox and Brer Bear. Right?

ETA: I googled Tar Baby - that was the name of the original Story. According to Wikipedia the Disney film was Song of the South.

I remember that- wasn't it a segment of a bigger movie? Was Song of the South the movie title?

I guess it was- just looked it up. We always called it the "Zip a dee do da movie"

When I went to Disney World last spring, I was thumbing through a book in a store about the history of Disney rides. The Splash Mountain ride is the whole Brer Rabbit thing and Disney faced a lot of opposition to the theme of the ride. They had to change "tar baby" to a honey pot because of the former racial slur. God forbid we remember a unique subculture from our past!
