I will start by explaining Henry Giroux's thoughts on the Disney films that he talks about in his article. In his article “Are Disney Movies Good for Your Kids?” ", Giroux explains how harmful Disney animated films are to children. Giroux explains his idea of ​​stereotypes and how they are harmful and polluting to one's self-esteem and self-esteem. Giroux adds that young women have the idea that they must be saved from a prince and swept away to be rescued by him. It also says how these Disney princesses are willing to sacrifice everything for their prince charming for a chance to experience their happiness every time, as you see by this quote; “…Ariel trades her voice for a pair of legs so she can pursue the handsome Prince Eric. Although children may be delighted by Ariel's adolescent rebellion, they are poisoned to ultimately believe that desire, choice, and empowerment are closely linked to catching and loving handsome men. (Giroux, 59)Giroux also talks about racism in Disney films and how certain characters are perceived as being African-American or Latino. “In Disney's interpretation of colonial history, Pocahontas is transformed into a brunette, Barbie-like model with an hourglass figure whose relationship with Aryan hunk John Smith transforms a historical act of colonial barbarity into a sentimental romance . » (Giroux, 63 years old) Giroux says We then explain how Pocahontas is historically incorrect and written in a cheerful way and so far from the truth. He believed Pocahontas from Disney Pot Ray in a way unrelated to her in the story. He also talks about racism in Aladdin and how Arabs were also seen as barbarians, violent, inhumane people. I do not agree with Giroux's ideology in any way...... middle of paper ...... how can any of this be taught is not good for your children. All of the lessons I talked about earlier in the paragraph tell us what we should want our children to know and remember from movies. These are things that children can understand because they are confronted with them and see them every day. It's not something you have to be raised to understand like racism and its differences.
