‘The Jungle Book’
“The Jungle Book” features an orangutan named King Louie who talks in jive slang, which is associated with black jazz musicians. He also sings that he wants to be a man in “I Wanna Be Like You.” It’s hard not to see all this as racist, especially given that Rudyard Kipling, original author of “The Jungle Book,” penned an ode to white imperialism called “White Man’s Burden.”
