Black parents on 'The Little Mermaid' and representation
This week, a live-action version of Disney’s "The Little Mermaid’ opens in theaters, more than 30 years after the original animated movie hit the big screen. It’s one of just a few times that a Disney princess will be played by a Black actress, a casting decision that sparked both joy and backlash. Amna Nawaz explored what this moment means for our arts and culture series, CANVAS.
