They don't need to hide the racist books from 50 years ago when stuff like this is still happening.
What type of message does this send to children and adults???

And how about the fact that the first Disney animated movie with an African-American princess hasn't been released yet (granted, it's coming out later this year, but still.)? If I can recall correctly (and I may well be missing something), Mulan and Pocahontas are the only minority princesses, and both those movies were released in the 90s.
