Recently a tweet I wrote about Disney's release of Fantasia on Blu-ray was republished in a children's ministry-oriented magazine:

Tannerman tweets!

I'm flattered that it was included, even though it really didn't have much to do with ministry. For those curious about the censorship I mentioned, here's an excerpt from Wikipedia:

The 1969 theatrical release of Fantasia included the removal of the Sunflower character, a centaur depicted as an African-American girl in the Pastoral Symphony segment.

According to The Memory Hole, "Performing menial duties for the blonde, white female centaurs, Sunflower is a racial stereotype along the lines of Amos and Andy, Buckwheat, and Aunt Jemima". John Carnochan, the editor responsible for the change, said "It's sort of appalling to me that these stereotypes were ever put in". The edit has been in place in all theatrical and home video releases since 1969.

These edits resulted in 3 short scenes being cut. They've never appeared on a DVD release, so there was hope that in the "restored" Blu-ray release these scenes would appear. No such luck.

Disney just continues to edit the film without saying a word. Of course, this isn't the only film they've post-humorously edited "for modern audiences." It's quite a long list!
