Black N' Animated
07/05/20 • 88 min
HEY ANIMATION FAMILY
Black N Animated has been doing a bit of juggling behind the scenes and because we are having trouble finding the time to sit and record a new BW episode, we thought we'd revisit one of our topics from Season 1 talking about the Censored Eleven! Check out the info below.
----more----
Hello world!
We're excited to present to you the fourth episode of the Black N Animated podcast! In this BW episode (WB? BW? still figuring that out) Bre and Way discuss the Censored Eleven. These are animated shorts origanilly produced and released by Waner Bros.and withheld from syndication by United Artist in 1968, for it's racially insensitive content. We watch five of the shorts and discuss what makes them offensive, Is there any salvaging them to make them better? and why acknowledging these shorts is important.
