(1931). Joel Chandler Harris, Editor and Essayist. Chapel Hill: Univ. of North Carolina Press. p.103. OCLC 272364. In Bob Dylan's epic poem " Last Thoughts on Woody Guthrie", the author lists several people that are commonly looked to for hope and inspiration, saying "that stuff ain't real". In one verse of the poem, he says "And Uncle Remus can't tell you and neither can Santa Claus." [10] [11] Harris traveled to accept an invitation to the White House by President Theodore Roosevelt. Two years earlier, Roosevelt had said, "Presidents may come and presidents may go, but Uncle Remus stays put. Georgia has done a great many things for the Union, but she has never done more than when she gave Mr. Joel Chandler Harris to American literature." [12] McCoy, Sharon D.

ISBN 0195122917. p. 77.Rapf later claimed the script he wrote bore almost no resemblance to the final film. And yet he stayed with Disney, helping write Cinderella, among other films. Given Walt Disney’s history as a conservative — according to his daughter Lillian in the 2008 documentary Walt & El Grupo, Walt was deeply upset by the 1941 animators’ strike, and soured against radicalism — hiring Rapf was likely a way to launder his own politics, especially given that Rapf’s input was ignored. an opportunist who would happily eat any of the other animals but is admired for his ability to fly Following on from the US’s emancipation proclamation of 1863, Harris’s portrayal of Uncle Remus, the “happy slave”, fed a white American nostalgia for its plantation past as a time when everybody knew their place. In this fantasy, unruly or child-like enslaved people were guided and cared for by benevolent white masters.

Harris’s versions of the Brer Rabbit tales were sanitised to entertain white readers. The violence and injustice at the heart of both plantation life and the traditional folktales were tempered. Instead, Harris’s stories offered a more benign view of slavery. Shahid, Aliyah (August 2, 2011). "GOP Congressman, Doug Lamborn of Colorado, blasted for likening President Obama to a 'tar baby' ". Daily News. New York. The tar-baby theme is present in the folklore of various tribes of Meso-America and of South America: it is found in such stories [15] as the Nahuatl (of Mexico) "Lazy Boy and Little Rabbit" (González Casanova 1946, pp.55–67), Pipil (of El Salvador) "Rabbit and Little Fox" (Schultes 1977, pp.113–116), and Palenquero (of Colombia) "Rabbit, Toad, and Tiger" (Patiño Rosselli 1983, pp.224–229). In Mexico, the tar baby story is also found among Mixtec, [16] Zapotec, [17] and Popoluca. [18] [19] In North America, the tale appears in White Mountain Apache lore as "Coyote Fights a Lump of Pitch". [20] In this story, white men are said to have erected the pitch-man that ensnares Coyote. [ citation needed]
