According to Dorfman, not all people carry their ancestors’ bones to the new land, but all of them carry their own language to the migrant country.

    Today, while re-arranging her DVD collection, my three-year-old picked up The Little Mermaid and asked me if she could watch it. Just seeing the cover picture reminded me of the days I would watch this same Disney movie on repeat as a child, good times. It also reminded me of the time yonks ago when I read a random article about the original fairytales some of our beloved childhood movies are adapted from. Childhood officially ruined.

The message that you're not beautiful unless your skin is light, you have a small waist, and have long skinny legs. This is one of the many ones you can get from watching closely. As kids we don't notice this. To us it was another character needed to bring the movie along. It seems to me that they don't think we notice, this which is partially true.
