Quote Of The Day

"The above Youtube clip of Disney's Princess and the Frog shows a truly beautiful piece of animated art, yet the Black princess is not allowed to have a Black male counterpart. There is nothing wrong with the character having a White paramour but there is something to be said with having all types of love portrayed. We have yet to see a White cinematic princess profess her love for a male of color so why is it palatable for the converse? And then there's the question of the moviegoing audience. It is highly plausible that neither a Black or White audience would pay attention to a film of this nature without the multi-racial bent. Heck, there was a contingent of Black critics that had a problem with the character's original name of 'Maddie' because it sounded like the more racially charged 'Mamm[y]' moniker. So now we have Princess Tiana which sounds more ghettocentric and less accurate for the 1930[s] Louisiana backdrop for which this animated effort takes place." — Afronerd, black conservative Republican blogger, on controversy surrounding the movie, which will be released around Christmas
