According to the petition, “The Proud Family has always had issues with colorism.” The petition’s creator writes, “Dijonay Jones is depicted as a dark-skinned [girl] with a terrible attitude,” also noting the character’s “aggressive” and “impulsive behavior,” which are negative tropes that are often associated with Black women.
“I, therefore, call upon [the Walt Disney Company] to cancel The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder,” the petition reads, “or at least redesign the role of Dijonay.”
