Disney's First Black Princess

Press, Associated. "Disney’s first black princess: So what, kids say." MSNBC. 13 Nov 2009. Associated Press, Web. 15 Nov 2009. .

Disney's first black princess is here! What do kids say? This article talks about kids reactions to this new princess. Their reactions are usual and normal for children, in that, they don't have one. They are just so happy that their is a new Disney princess. Parents on the other hand have a different perspective to this. Some parents are trying to get their kids to realize the significance of this new princess. They are trying to teach their girls that this is history. Although there is some controversy, in that this new princess is a frog half of the movie. Overall kids are still ecstatic for this new Disney princess.
I think this article has some very good view points on the new Disney Princess. I think it is great that their is now a brand new African American princess. Of course there will be controversy, because you can't please everyone. I also think that parents should not force their younger children to know in detail of what this means. Kids shouldn't have to worry about that kind of thing, they should just be allowed to have fun and live in the movie. I think the media did a good job in making an African Princess, the only thing that will be brought up is why the princess is a frog for a lot of the movie.
