Doesn't Disney mean a watered-down version of a white girl? I'll wait it out and see how the sista is depicted. Whistling...

I really hope you are not right... But I was thinking the same thing.

Nope the princess looks very black and very beautiful. She even has natural hair The only problem I have is that the hero is a white guy, they could have made it a suave, young black guy from the jazz age.
Check her out:

I was being sarcastic. Blacks being happy that Whites created a Black princess so they gain revenue from them, is particularly asinine. Someone explain to me why this is positive.

If the Black women in this thread would like to see Black princess, the virtuous of them should shuffle over to the closest mirror.
