The Wonderful World of Disney: Ruby Bridges (1998)
Season 1, Episode 16
Not a good intro to racism
7 September 2020
As a parent I wish I had been warned before watching this with the young ones. It is not appropriate for kids who can't handle an hour and a half of drooling caricatures shouting mean things at a little girl. We were expecting something with intelligent talking points instead of a glorified ten minute YouTube presentation blown up into a poorly scripted TV movie. If your kid doesn't have an interest in or understanding of America's civil rights movement then consider something like The Boxtrolls instead.

In the tradition of recent Disney+ fare, phoned-in performances undermined what was left of this travesty.
