Book excerpt: "In society today it is considered wrong to use or believe truth in stereotypes in regards to ones race, sex or religion; however, a majority of society is unaware of the constant presence of disability stereotypes in television and film today. Is it because many people are not exposed to disability personally or is it because the media has consistently presented the public with certain images that have been ingrained into society's beliefs and ideas? This analysis takes a deeper look at the use and consistent perpetuation of such stereotypes with a focus on Disney's animated films."--Abstract.
