About this listen
In this episode, we take a clear-eyed look at Disney’s Song of the South, a film long praised for its music and animation—and criticized for its portrayal of race and history. We summarize the story, explore its historical context, and unpack why it has remained controversial for decades. Balancing nostalgia with accountability, we discuss what works, what doesn’t, and how the film lands when viewed through a modern lens, before closing with our overall rating and final thoughts on its legacy.
