Disney+ user: *tries to stream Song of the South* Whoopi Goldberg, emerging from a shifted ceiling tile: haha isn't old stuff great? I love old stuff. Hey listen let's touch base real quickhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCT1clqci3I …
Hari Kondabolu's documentary about Apu on the Simpsons has an interview with Goldberg where they tour her collection of blackface/minstrelsy memorabilia, which is quite extensive She talks a fair bit about her mixed feelings about owning all this stuff
That, you know, purchasing and collecting this stuff is a way to gain power over it
YMMV though Like... Ted Danson was dating her when he got in huge, almost career-ending trouble for showing up in blackface to her Friars Club roast in 1993, a skit it turns out she came up with and urged him to do
It's a real trip reading about it today - and 1993 was not really a "more innocent time" where this stuff was okay Montel Williams was furious over ithttps://apnews.com/article/59a857fd2b10063314283c524f8a851c …
This is one of the pieces of comedy history that has been most successfully buried by both Danson and Goldberg, such that it is one of the few Friars Club roasts where no video footage was ever leaked and in fact was probably destroyedhttps://lostmediaarchive.fandom.com/wiki/Ted_Danson_Blackface_Performance_at_Whoopi_Goldberg%27s_Roast_(1993) …
Not as great a loss for cinema history as burning all the prints of Song of the South would be, arguably But still
