In much the same way that “Coal Black and de Sebben Dwarves” (1943) is considered one of the classic cartoons - but it has never been officially released and is rarely (if ever) shown.

I think I caught it once on TCM while they were doing a “Racism in Hollywood” series.

Sometimes, the whitewashing of history bothers me. I agree with Ebert that you have to see the thing, and understand it in its context. That’s real. It helps understand the America we used to be, and why the America we’re in is in many ways SO much better.
