This cartoon is probably what made me take notice of Disney since I didnt have much exposure to their cartoons before this.
Disney was actually the least offensive of the studios when it came to race caricature.
Compare the controversy over the zebra centaur in Fantasia or the crows in Dumbo to the cartoons being done at Warner Bros at the same time. Even Chuck Jones did one or two racially themed cartoons.
I think the simple reason for Disney's enduring success with the old cartoons is that it was designed for a specific home audience. It was the opposite of Globalist Disney.
No chance modern Disney would touch a story like the Legend of Sleepy Hollow--and if you check Disney's wiki on it, they list Brom Bones as the villain, when that is not the case with either the original story or the cartoon. Ichabod is more of a bad guy than Brom. He's out to marry the daughter of Van Tassell for her wealth.
Ridiculous distortion by Disney executives.
