Animated Stereotypes –
Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Alexander Lindgren, 36761 Pro gradu-avhandling i engelska språket och litteraturen Handledare: Jason Finch Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi Åbo Akademi 2020 ÅBO AKADEMI – FACULTY OF ARTS, PSYCHOLOGY AND THEOLOGY Abstract for Master’s Thesis Subject: English Language and Literature Author: Alexander Lindgren Title: Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Supervisor: Jason Finch Abstract: Walt Disney Animation Studios is currently one of the world’s largest producers of animated content aimed at children. However, while Disney often has been associated with themes such as childhood, magic, and innocence, many of the company’s animated films have simultaneously been criticized for their offensive and quite problematic take on race and ethnicity, as well their heavy reliance on cultural stereotypes. This study aims to evaluate Disney’s portrayals of racial and ethnic minorities, as well as determine whether or not the nature of the company’s portrayals have become more culturally sensitive with time. To accomplish this, seven animated feature films produced by Disney were analyzed. These analyses are of a qualitative nature, with a focus on imagology and postcolonial literary theory, and the results have simultaneously been compared to corresponding criticism and analyses by other authors and scholars. Based on the overall results of the analyses, it does seem as if Disney is becoming more progressive and culturally sensitive with time. However, while most of the recent films are free from the clearly racist elements found in the company’s earlier productions, it is quite evident that Disney still tends to rely heavily on certain cultural stereotypes.

Aladdin Monologues
ALADDIN MONOLOGUES Please choose ONE of the following monologues to use for your audition. Try to memorize it if you can, and put LOTS of expression into it. Feel free to read whatever part you like, but realize the Directors may think you are better suited for one of the other roles. Give it your best! ALADDIN: (Speaking to Jasmine) Why would I steal a loaf of bread? Gee, I dunno. Acute hunger pains? Lightness of the head? Rude growling noises from the stomach? All of the above? I can see you’re not from around here. You’re too nice and too scared. This is Agrabah, hungry and angry. When you’re trapped here, you get used to it. So, you don’t want to tell me where you’re from. Fine. But I bet wherever it is, it’s – well it’s gotta be – beautiful! ALADDIN: (Talking to Himself in the cave) I don’t like this being a prisoner! But I do like Jasmine. I mean “The Princess”! UGH! I must’ve sounded so stupid! Then again, what does it matter? I’m never gonna see her again. Me, the “street rat”! Besides, she deserves a prince. Or at least someone better than me. Oh why did I ever meet her? (Pause) Boy, I’m glad I met her! Look at all this junk! I bet no one’s been in here for years. Huh, a lamp. (picks it up) Something’s written on it. Let’s see here…. GENIE: (Coming up from the lamp) Oy! Ten thousand years in a tin can’ll give you SUCH a crick in the neck! (Cracks his neck) Okay, that’s better! (to Aladdin) C’mon kid, what’s it gonna be? Cash, camels, Casbahs? You must want something… Hey! What’d you say your name was? “Aladdin” huh? He speaks! Okay, this is going to be a snap! May I call you “Ali”? You know, Al, you’re a lot smaller than my last master.

Race and Representation in Disney's Live-Action Remakes of Aladdin
A “ Whole New World ” : Race and Representation in Disney’s Live - Action Remakes of Aladdin, The Lion King, and Mulan by Amany Yehia Elmogahzy A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements fo r the Degree of Master of Communication Auburn, Alabama December 15, 2018 Keywords : Race, Representation, Disney, Pre - reception, Live - action Copyright 2018 by Amany Yehia Elmogahzy Approved by Dr. Andrea Kelley, Chair, Assistant Professor of Med ia Studies Dr. George Plasketes, Professor of Media Studies Hollie Lavenstein, Associate Professor and Associate Director of Media Studies Abstract When Disney began adapting their animated classics into live - action remakes, the studio assumed t hat this representationa l shift would be a perfect fit for their audiences. However, these films, specifically quickly became contested sites of cultural discussion, with audiences demanding inclusivity and diversity in th eir production practices. T his study examines how audience discourses are shaping public understanding of Disney’s films with regard to their racial politics . In critically examining the representations and the paratexts surrounding both the animated and live - action texts of Aladdin (2019 ) , The Lion King (2019) , and Mulan (20 20) , this analysis interr ogates the racial ideologies which have defines Disney ’ s representation s of race historically and in co ntemporary con texts. Ultimately, this study evaluates to what extent th e pr e - reception discourse continues to influence Disney’s approach to the casting of the ir films. ii Acknowledgments To my father, Yeh ia Elmogahzy, because I owe it all to you! You have been my emotional support not only throughout this process but throughout my entire life and always encouraged me even when all I wanted to do was give up.
