SPLASH MOUNTAIN: INSENSITIVE FUN, Read and see this short film on the Curd Williams-Hertz blog, Unique Realms. As it happens, the entry includes a reference to a photograph of which I own a copy, and just finished hanging in the bathroom of my new apartment. It would seem an odd choice to those who don’t know me well, as other artwork in the room is a Miro poster supporting Human Rights, a copy of a child’s drawing where stick figures overthrow a military tank to end War. Though I do believe that access to clean water for bathing is a human right, this was a light-hearted way of making the point in my bathroom. However — the blog entry on Unique Realms, “Splash Mountain: Insensitive Fun” takes the Human Rights, including the eradication of racism dialog to the next step.. it shows honestly how lights go on in people’s heads that facilitate change that is often for the better. And when Disney reopens with the new Splash Mountain, and maybe you’ll see Curd there commenting on changes for a more just society.
