I live in the South and I specifically remember reading many of the Uncle Remus stories when I was in first grade, and that my class sang Zip-a-dee-doo-dah at some school event or another. Should probably note I'm white and the school was all white kids and uuuum I have no doubt there was some level of racism at play at that school there but yeah. Anyway I had often seen images from Song of the South and ngl, as a kid I was rather disappointed that I could never see the movie that had the song and the stories that I learned in school.

Anyway yeah I agree that just locking it away forever is probably not a good move. History is important, even (and perhaps especially) when it makes us uncomfortable. There are plenty of ways to make movies like this into opportunities to learn. Or, as you suggest, opportunities to remake and do better.
