Disneyland debuts its first ride to celebrate a Black princess: ‘It’s about time’
In 2020, at the height of the Black Lives Matter protests after George Floyd’s murder, Disney had announced that its parks would be “retheming” an iconic, decades-old attraction: Splash Mountain, a log-flume ride with a storyline drawn from a deeply racist 1946 film.
This week, Disneyland held a glamorous launch for the rebranded ride, which is now Tiana’s Bayou Adventure.
