Why the black babe had to be eatin' watermelon? Why the Asian baby had to be sooooo occupied by a top - only to entertain? It's not racist - in it's time. As in it's time this was not considered ignorant. Now it would be considered ignorant.

i agree with the others - despite its obvious racial problems, it was normal for the time and this will never ceease to be an adorable timeless classic. you'll never find a cartoon drawn and animated as smoothly as this ever again! its all CG crud... Betty Boop- legend.

does anyone actually find this cartoon racist? (not including PC loving whites)

Wow. Then again, there were many prevailing stereotypes of that period that were pretty much accepted in everyday life. It's still a cute cartoon.

Well, the baby was shooting things with his toy rifle and I kept thinking bout the Japanese and World War II. That's why I asked when this was made. I don't know if that was intentional or not.
