Confederate Jasmine is now referred to as star jasmine.
I’m not sure if confederate rose has a pc name yet.

The Toy isn't racist. It's a beautiful comedic satire that actually delves into fighting racism and inequalities by the end of the movie.

Just because you gave them racist nicknames, doesn't mean the objects themselves are considered racist.

Just you.

What's racist about that?
