>it's just that we do not link blackface to racism

I think what you mean is that a lot of people don't think it's racist when THEY do it.

>Not to mention the fact that Disney would also market to a lot of countries where white is not the majority.

I think you'll find Asia is pretty weird about black people.

Blackface does not have the same cultural context everywhere in the world, though. In some old traditions, painting your face black was not used to mock black people but to portray a certain saint while actually acknowledging his skin colour (which I, personally, would read as an inclusive action and not a racist one).
