I am one who appreciates diversity in film and TV--I really do. I know I'm as white as they come (I have regularly apologized over the years for the color of my skin as more often than not, many things are assumed about me because of the way I look), and when I noticed Aliza Vellani in a recent Hallmark film, I knew I wanted to interview her. Thankfully, she agreed, and she was quite happy to tell me how she got started in the business, her notable and current works, and even a bit about her unique
The world we live in has many problems, with no solutions. Some problems are more extreme than others. However, one problem in particular is a problem that many people face in their everyday lives.

They pay the television company, whether it is Dish Network, DirecTV, Charter, or whoever their supplier is to watch shows, not commercials When the individual is sitting at home

found the movie to completely overlook the true essence and spirit of the Powhatan Indian princess. In an attempt to curb many of its criticisms and appease angry minorities, Disney produced a sequel. Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World (1998) picks up on Pocahontas’ life in Jamestown and transports her to London. Here Disney hoped to give more accuracy to the historical figure’s life and continue to teach society the lessons of tolerance and good triumphing over evil. However, this second film

The shows that Disney creates do not teach important lessons, they are littered with racist, stereotypical and sexist comments. These shows are sculpting a certain kind of child. This child then grows up to be an adult who does not have the best morals. The Disney Channel shows as

His father, Elias, met Isabelle in California of that same year and the two carried on an affair that ended with the birth of Walt. Later, Elias brought the two back to Chicago, Illinois where Isabelle became a housekeeper for the Disney family. Walt was assimilated into the Disney household and treated as the biological son of Elias and Flora Disney. Isabelle was with the family for years, being passed on from the Elias and
Walt Disney arrived in California in the summer of 1923 with a lot of hopes but little else. He had made a cartoon in Kansas City about a little girl in a cartoon world, called Alice’s Wonderland, and he decided that he could use it as his “pilot” film to sell a series of these “Alice Comedies” to a distributor. Soon after arriving in California, he was successful. A distributor in New York, M. J. Winkler, contracted to distribute the “Alice Comedies” on October 16, 1923, and this date became the

Subnetting allows you to create multiple logical networks that exist within a single Class A, B, or C network. If you don't subnet, you will only be able to use one network from your Class A, B, or C network. Unless you have been assigned many major networks, you really need to subnet. Each data link on a network must be a unique subnet, with every node on that link being a member of the same subnet. For serial interfaces (standard HDLC), you will need one subnet for the circuit, or "wire" (both
Disney's Medievalesque Sleeping Beauty "It was not once upon a time, but in a certain time in history, before anyone knew what was happening, Walt Disney cast a spell on the fairy tale. He did not use a magic wand or demonic powers. On the contrary, Disney employed the most up-to-date technological means and used his own American "grit" and ingenuity to appropriate European fairy tales. His technical skills and ideological proclivities were so consummate that his signature obfuscated the names

Spiderman, Buzz Lightyear, and Air Bud, those are just a few of my favorite Disney characters I used to enjoy watching in the old hit kids movies.

Disney used to just be about movies and television shows for young children all the way up to early teens. However as the years go by Disney has made changes to their target demographics and they try to produce movies
In 1995, Disney produced a romanticized version of relationships between early Native Americans and Europeans in the film, Pocahontas. It is controversial whether this movie was intended to enlighten children about the beginning of America in a story-like manner, or a way to conceal a dark past and brainwash future generations with this illusion of a happy beginning to the United States of America. In order to make the Pocahontas and John Smith love myth suitable for children, it is understandable
Lessons of Equality, Understanding, and Tolerance in Disney’s Pocahontas Introduction [1] The children’s movie Pocahontas is an attempt by Disney to promote racial tolerance, equality, and understanding.

can get their parents to buy what they want (see advertised on television). The Walt Disney World advertisement, however, takes a different approach by marketing to the entire family. The Disney advertisement is extremely effective, appealing to both the parents’ and children’s sense of wonder and excitement, while also making an emotional appeal to the parents’ sense of value. The caption of the Walt Disney World advertisement in Family Circle magazine reads: “Pretend your family is on the most
