I'll start by explaining Henry Giroux's thoughts on the Disney films he talks about in his article. In his article “Are Disney Movies Good for Your Children?”, Giroux talks about how Disney animated films are bad for children. Giroux explains his idea of ​​stereotyping and how it is harmful and polluting to one's self-esteem and personal value. Giroux adds that young women have the idea that they must be saved by a prince and be overwhelmed to be saved by him. It also says how these Disney princesses are willing to sacrifice anything for their Prince Charming to have a chance at living happily ever after, as you can see from this quote; “…Ariel trades her voice to get a pair of legs so she can chase the handsome Prince Eric. While children may be delighted by Ariel's adolescent rebellion, they are ultimately poisoned into believing that desire, choice, and empowerment are intricately tied to catching and falling in love with handsome men.” (Giroux, 59)Giroux also talks about racism in Disney films and how some characters being seen as African American or Latino is viewed negatively. “In Disney's version of the colonial story, Pocahontas is transformed into a brown, Barbie-like supermodel with an hourglass figure whose relationship with Aryan hunk John Smith transforms a historical act of colonial barbarism into a sentimental romance .” (Giroux, 63) Giroux says ahead to explain how Pocahontas is historically incorrect and written in a gleeful manner and so far from the truth. He believed Disney Pot Ray's Pocahontas in a way not comparable to her in the story. He also talks about racism in Aladdin and the fact that Arabs were also seen as barbaric, inhuman and violent people. I in no way agree with Giroux's ideologue... middle of the paper... how can this all be happening? taught not be good for your children, all the lessons I talked about earlier in the paragraph tell us what we should want our children to know and take away from movies. These are things that children can understand because they face these things and see them every day. It's not something you have to be raised to understand like racism and their differences.
