A song from the enduring 1941 cartoon film, a kid’s favorite and subject to a debate about its being fit for kids (the painful separation of Dumbo from his mother) and implies racial tone – in this song.

The crows, who undoubtedly represent African American males, mock Dumbo’s claim that he could fly, but eventually become his greatest cheerleaders. Their mannerism and talking/singing style have led to the accusation of being thinly-veiled racist caricatures. It is also of note that the main crow is named Jim, as in Jim Crow laws.
