Synopsis
How the slightly risqu gags in some silent cartoons were replaced by rigid standards in the sound film era, the perpetuation of racial stereotypes in many early cartoons, the censorship of television cartoons, and the many animators who were blacklisted from the industry in the 1950s for alleged sympathies with the Communist Party are the subjects of this book.
