Or perhaps you could reconcile how absurdly racist this movie actually is. The whole premise is about how great life was for a blacl man in the south during reconstruction. Get real
Everyone is concerned about the racial connotations of the tar baby, but I'm more concerned by the fact that Br'er Rabbit thought it was perfectly acceptable to punch what he believed to be a sentient being in the face, lmao. For real though, no, the tar baby is NOT a racist depiction of a black infant as many believe. The meaning of the term 'tar baby' is a sticky situation which is only aggravated by attempts to get out of it, which is exactly what happens to Br'er Rabbit in this scene.
That may be the def. Of tar baby but I still believe this is an analogy of the way slaves were treated as the creator Joel Charles harris spent 4 years on a plantation as an apprentice.

@@elizabethstanley4541 yet the voices themselves from song of the south are not representative of black culture.

They are essentially black performers pretending to be white performers pretending to be black, whilst speaking the words of a white screenwriter whose source was a white author.
@@paulharrison443 You realize the author merely collected and recorded the Uncle Remus stories from actual black people, right? And he didn't do it with malicious intent, but because he grew up with black slaves and came to love their culture? Nothing in the author's book is original, he got it all from black American folk tales, which are descended from actual African folk tales. Br'er Rabbit being caught in a tar baby is similar to a West African story about Anansi the Spider using a web baby to capture a fairy. The stories are authentic, you're just mad a white guy was the one who published them.
Alan Petty Jr Tar baby wasn’t associated with the ride tho. It was replaced by a beehive in the ride. I also believe the negative connotation of tar baby came after this story from 1881, and even if it didn’t it’s not mentioned in the ride. I understand how the tar baby could offend people but I don’t see a reason to change the ride. 🤷♂️
Walt Disney used this cartoon-era related material to "bridge together" segregated American audiences, not divide them. It worked much better than most discriminating era-biased politics in 1946.
Ironically people who take offense to 'tar baby' today are just like Brer Rabbit taking offense to tar baby in the movie... causing problems where there isn't one.
a lot of people miss the obvious fact that the rabbit is a black character (as is the fox and bear); black voice actor, obviously meant to be black. so a black character rabbit punching what is clearly shown to be a non-living lump of tar, can only be racist if you're trying to find racism that isn't there.
The tar baby is known to be a racist way to talk about black infants and is often shown with a caricature of the “average black person” with big red lips, TAR black skin, and big eyes.
I used to love Brer Rabbit as a kid. Listened to the vinyl and made my mom read the stories from a collection of Disney stories. It's a shame angry people chose to read so deeply into a children's story.
@@unnaturalselection8330this movie is racist point blank period. Doesn’t take away from your time growing up but to not understand how this movie makes African American feel in this country maybe you need to dig deeper than your own perspective
@@octavianlockwood7231 Wrong Cultist. The story is straight from black culture, in fact it was a very big deal celebrating that the African American community was given a voice when this movie came out.
Nah, Disney did nothing wrong here. They actually made a black character the most virtuous character in the film at a time when that was controversial.
Hmmm, I do find it interesting that everyone says "racist" when the biggest thing I take from the scene is the Rabbit has next to no anger control and a stranger not talking to him is worthy of violence.
@@PreferablyPurple Uh... So because someone doesn't greet you and you get mad your racist? Would this have the same impact if it was a white baby doll (or purple, ha, get it? No? OK...) Because the stories of Uncle Remus specifically talk about a tar baby, and I don't think I've ever seen white tar.
@JSUK I have googled it. The origin was the story of Uncle Remus. Similar to words like ass, it was only more recently taken out of its original context and made into a racist term. The original was simply a problem that gets worse if you struggle.
@JSUK Bruh. Recently. As far as I've looked, the origin of tar baby comes from the stories of Uncle Remus. It's literally the first definition on all dictionaries, and the only on some, and the origin that Encyclopedia Britannica as well as many other sources state... Mate.
I watched this all my growing up days and I still don’t see anything racist or offensive about it. As far as I’m concerned it’s far far better than most anything you can find for children these days.
History shouldn’t be erased, it doesn’t matter if it age badly, what matters is to learn from it. I know that some people find this film offensive, I don't see that, I'm 17 years old and I didn't see Anything offensive. I knew this film was in a time where there was a lot of controversy, but this film wasn't about slavery, it was just about a sweet old man telling stories to children about talking animals that taught lessons. I know I might get it wrong, but I don't care, we need to show this movie to the next generation so they can learn from the mistakes from that time, so they can become better, mature people. I honestly don't give a crap if you got offended, you should have watched something else, but for the people that agree with me, don't worry, you're not alone, this film needs to be in public.
It would seem don’t fall for the trap of taking small offense to something that obviously some one else has laid out as a trap for you? You see brer fox laid a trap for that rabbit, and he fell for it!
I first saw this when I was 5 years old . It was at the R.K.O. Albee in Providence, RI. It played over the Christmas/New Year holiday, 1946/47. My older sister brought me. It was the first movie I ever saw!

"Tar baby" is a racist descriptor used to describe Black people long ago. That's going to trigger some people right there.
Alan Petty Jr Tar baby wasn’t associated with the ride tho. It was replaced by a beehive in the ride. I also believe the negative connotation of tar baby came after this story from 1881, and even if it didn’t it’s not mentioned in the ride. I understand how the tar baby could offend people but I don’t see a reason to change the ride. 🤷♂️
Walt Disney used this cartoon-era related material to "bridge together" segregated American audiences, not divide them. It worked much better than most discriminating era-biased politics in 1946.
The two black actors thought it was a lovely film and couldn't believe why there was an uproar.
Ironically people who take offense to 'tar baby' today are just like Brer Rabbit taking offense to tar baby in the movie... causing problems where there isn't one.
Only racists call things racist. Perfectly normal to the rest of humanity
@@sr5979so by that logic you’re also racist
a lot of people miss the obvious fact that the rabbit is a black character (as is the fox and bear); black voice actor, obviously meant to be black. so a black character rabbit punching what is clearly shown to be a non-living lump of tar, can only be racist if you're trying to find racism that isn't there.
I know right? It's just a doll made of tar. If you see the tar baby and immediately think it's a black person, you're the racist one, lol.
d347b2 exactly
The tar baby is known to be a racist way to talk about black infants and is often shown with a caricature of the “average black person” with big red lips, TAR black skin, and big eyes.
I used to love Brer Rabbit as a kid. Listened to the vinyl and made my mom read the stories from a collection of Disney stories.
It's a shame angry people chose to read so deeply into a children's story.
You must be white. How you can’t see the overt racism in this is insane
@@jazxsims2725 You must be a bear or a fox.
Otherwise you wouldn't have a dog in the fight.
Kudos on learning to type, I guess.
@@unnaturalselection8330this movie is racist point blank period. Doesn’t take away from your time growing up but to not understand how this movie makes African American feel in this country maybe you need to dig deeper than your own perspective
@@octavianlockwood7231 Wrong Cultist. The story is straight from black culture, in fact it was a very big deal celebrating that the African American community was given a voice when this movie came out.
@@mountedpatrolman not suprised considering there wasn’t much of any black representation in media period 😒🙄
It's nice to see a TH-cam video without a barage of ads. Cowardly advertisers
Loved this as a kid im 46 now
Same!!!
I miss these good, old-fashioned, entertaining stories. It's like traveling back in time... a time piece.
Tar baby makes an appearance in who framed roger rabbit as well
Can even believe they are taking such a masterpiece out! 🤦♀️
Yes, I can.
You're probably 15 or clueless.
1:59 And that's how swaggering was invented.
God save splash mountain 😞
I never noticed until recently that Brer Bear has pink eyes.
Same
Is he high?
OHHHHHH OKAY So the point the ride was to step inside the story of Brer Rabbit wow. IM SO MAD ITS LEAVING
0:40 play this at 0.25 speed XD
Or .5
Disney should’ve done two versions, one with Uncle Remus, and one with just the animated parts.
When you don't say hi back to a "nice" person
“Imma bust you WIDE open!”
Disney: fires Gina Carano
Also Disney: we'll just pretend this never happened.
It’s time we expose the truth to the public >:3
Oh that's racist
But facts and stats upset the community standards naziis...but anything from Dbaziisney stays
@@LegitMan335 Have you exposed the truth to the public yet? 😂
Nah, Disney did nothing wrong here. They actually made a black character the most virtuous character in the film at a time when that was controversial.
If only youtube had a laugh react like fb 😂
0:40 I Said "Howdy!" 😂
I’ve never seen this movie but I know the song
I love Brer rabbits voice
"you harda hearin?'
@@richardjohnson836 I said HOOOOOOWWWWDDYY!
According to imdb Brer Rabbit was voiced by actor Johnny Lee who worked with Lena Horne in "Stormy Weather"
Hmmm, I do find it interesting that everyone says "racist" when the biggest thing I take from the scene is the Rabbit has next to no anger control and a stranger not talking to him is worthy of violence.
Yeah the reason he got mad is because he feels like the tar baby is obligated to respond to him and that is the problem
@@PreferablyPurple Uh... So because someone doesn't greet you and you get mad your racist? Would this have the same impact if it was a white baby doll (or purple, ha, get it? No? OK...) Because the stories of Uncle Remus specifically talk about a tar baby, and I don't think I've ever seen white tar.
@JSUK I have googled it. The origin was the story of Uncle Remus. Similar to words like ass, it was only more recently taken out of its original context and made into a racist term. The original was simply a problem that gets worse if you struggle.
TAR BABY... its racist
@JSUK Bruh. Recently.
As far as I've looked, the origin of tar baby comes from the stories of Uncle Remus. It's literally the first definition on all dictionaries, and the only on some, and the origin that Encyclopedia Britannica as well as many other sources state... Mate.
Br'er Rabbit: Howdy!
Tar Baby: Nothing.
1:23 Br'er Fox got a little TOO excited 😭
God brer fox is such a cutie
Right?!?
furry
@@milkonokemono well I was more thinking of cuteness in the same way you call a dog cute but whatever, I'm not offended
OMG I was thinking the same thing he is a cutie!
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh
My favorite record as a kid.
i found satisfaction into the fox's voice,
Brer Fox seems to be rather popular in the furry community
@@redzrobinz3135 i get the feeling you think I'm a furry.
Lets just say I'm not really friends with em bo
@@SomerandomShmuck I didn't say you where, I just said that the furry community seems to love him. Literally go on devianar- oh wait nevermind don't.
@@redzrobinz3135 Oh lol Wait what does it say o-
These classic cartoons are soooooo good 😊
I used to watch this with my nan and grandad.
There’s actually a native American story with a similar premise involving a coyote that gets stuck in a stranger made of tar.
Tar baby trap, genius.
The fox and the bear set him up ,now he so stuck in that tar he can barely keep his eyes open
Brer fox is my favorite Disney caharacter
Please tell me I'm not the only one here who just wants to enjoy a Disney Classic without all the racial crap......
Youre not the only one, i lover brer rabbit
I watched this all my growing up days and I still don’t see anything racist or offensive about it. As far as I’m concerned it’s far far better than most anything you can find for children these days.
History shouldn’t be erased, it doesn’t matter if it age badly, what matters is to learn from it. I know that some people find this film offensive, I don't see that, I'm 17 years old and I didn't see Anything offensive. I knew this film was in a time where there was a lot of controversy, but this film wasn't about slavery, it was just about a sweet old man telling stories to children about talking animals that taught lessons. I know I might get it wrong, but I don't care, we need to show this movie to the next generation so they can learn from the mistakes from that time, so they can become better, mature people. I honestly don't give a crap if you got offended, you should have watched something else, but for the people that agree with me, don't worry, you're not alone, this film needs to be in public.
Brer Rabbit: "Was it hard to hear?" Me: "I like the quote."
He's saying "Is you hard of hearing?"
挨拶をしない人形に叱りつけるうさぎどんかわいい
It would seem don’t fall for the trap of taking small offense to something that obviously some one else has laid out as a trap for you? You see brer fox laid a trap for that rabbit, and he fell for it!
This was such a fun and cute movie ! Innocent and fun for kids ! ❤
I still can’t see why people are offended by this? This is a part of our history weather you like it or not it’s a part of all of us.
It's mostly just white liberals who are offended because they realize that black people were earning Oscars long before they came along to "save" them
Oh my God this is my new favorite thing! Play it! Play forever and while you're playing it go get me more!
Watch the whole thing. Its hysterical.
It’s not racist the tar baby is literally made out of tar
Enough of Eli it’s a trap
Exactly like I'm sorry if Tar happens to be a pure black colour lmao
@@tesseractrave so why didn’t they make a milk baby or some shit? White folks love to downplay racist shit
@N O people really need to cool with what they think is racism. Pulling the race card for EVERYTHING is pretty old...
I watched this as a kid in the theater.
When? 1972? 1980? Or 1986? I assume 1986
Cool
@@Anthonybchannel I assume he saw the 1986 release because that's the version I saw in Elementary
I first saw this when I was 5 years old . It was at the R.K.O. Albee in Providence, RI. It played over the Christmas/New Year holiday, 1946/47. My older sister brought me. It was the first movie I ever saw!
Imagine how much better this would be if instead of being narrated by Uncle Remus, it was Uncle Ruckus.
