The creator of Disney+ show The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder said he is thrilled by the backlash against the cartoon – which has been branded ‘anti-white propaganda’.
Disney was slammed for going woke yet again after the cartoon featured black children rapping about reparations and saying: ‘Slaves built this country.’
Bruce W. Smith, 61, who created the show in 2001 before rebooting it for a comeback on the streaming platform this year, was stunned by the backlash.
Smith, who co-directed Space Jam, tweeted: ‘Why the fear? We’re thrilled to have the opportunity to stoke the conversation.’
He then retweeted a comment on a video showing the kids in the show peacefully protesting when cops in riot gear show up.
