Exactly @ DaemonSeid and Animate.

Cartoons were a reflection of society at the time. Yes, they are offensive now, but then, they weren't. (ex: the late night Black and White cartoons on CN that show some propaganda from WWII featuring a character called Snafu. DEFINITELY not for children, but a lot of those cartoons were shown to the GIs in training and the military often used Disney and WB to create training films. Very interesting if you can catch some of them)

And remember that these cartoons were often shown as previews to regular movies, which were seen by mostly adults.

And I miss Speedy Gonzales and his cousin Slow Poke Rodriguez.

Oh, gosh, YES @ Song of the South. Most of that stuff went RIGHT over my head (I was a sheltered military brat), but now I want to see it.
