{Vintage VHS} Merrie Melodies (BANNED)

CONTENT WARNING AND DISCLAIMER:
The following Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons are unfortunately, a product of their time, and by no means reflect the views of myself or (as far as I know) modern-day Warner Bros. Studios.

The following footage is incredibly racist, offensive and inappropriate.
It was wrong then and it is wrong now.

That being said, I do feel it is important to show how things were in the past, in order to learn from it, so that we can grow and move on to more progressive ideals as a society.

------------------------------------------------------------

I must admit, I am saddened and disappointed to find these in my collection, but to be honest, I’m not surprised. Growing up in the South, things like this were quite common, and at the time (because of how young I was) a lot of the deeply offensive imagery and rhetoric went right over my head (I attribute that more to blissful ignorance on my family’s part versus straight-up racism).

I’m incredibly grateful that I can finally see past the “cutesy-cartoon-whimsy” for what it really was, because I’m afraid there are others who still need to cross that threshold.

On a side note, would anyone be able to tell me how to best get rid of the physical copy of the tape? I feel like it should go to the proper organization, but I’m just not sure which that would be. I’ve heard of the Jim Crow Museum - would that maybe be the best option? I want to make sure it goes to the right place.
**Thanks to anyone who has any helpful advice about that!**
