Streaming service Disney + has blocked under-sevens from watching certain films with characters based on racist stereotypes. Peter Pan (1953), Dumbo (1941), Swiss Family Robinson (1960), The Aristocats (1970) have been removed from the children's section, so they can only be watched with parental consent, reports The Mail on Sunday.
Peter Pan's portrayal of a Native American tribe called "redskins" is likely to be the reason the film was put into this category.
