Ep. 29 – The Princess and the Frog
“When you find out who you are, you’ll find out what you need.” – Mama Odie
On the 29th episode of Babes of Wonderland, we discuss Princess and the Frog. As the first Disney film to star an African American princess, the movie was highly anticipated and the center of a lot of controversy and expectation. We’ll delve into the importance of race and representation in pop culture, and touch on the most taboo of all Disney subjects, The Song of the South.
