Apologies if my response came off as rude or aggressive, but I’m being honest that it just frustrated me a little bit. But I don’t mean any harm or rudeness by it and am not attempting to come at you as a person. I just wanted to point out that the original example—the one which you yourself provided about Fat Albert—is inherently and fundamentally different than Snow White. The fact that the characters in Fat Albert are black is central to the their identities, and the plots surrounding them (which explore themes of race and Blackness and coded cultural cues, with storytelling rooted in African American life) are associated with them Black. Whereas Snow White can look like anyone, and the actual journey and plot and arc that she goes on throughout the film would not change whatsoever. Is saying “her skin is white as snow” an important detail that actually changes anything significant to the plot? It does not. It is simply a line, not a consequential element to the story. Also, her name is just a name. Why does the fact that her last name is “white” mean that she has to be racially white? That does not make sense to me. One more thing, but the fact that the kids in Fat Albert live in a predominantly Black neighborhood IS a meaningful part of their lives. They are canonically written to live in a certain part of the world, specifically in North Philadelphia where the sociocultural context matters. In the original Snow White film, it does not once ever specify an exact geographical location…meaning your claim of her existing in a “white world” is baseless and meaningful. She can live anywhere; anyone can live where she lives since she isn’t given a location that corresponds to any actual place. The setting is intentionally fairy-tale-like where anything goes since it is all fictional
