Wreck It Ralph 2 Whitewashing Controversy What To Know

Fans and advocacy groups quickly noticed the change and pressed Disney to do something about it. After all, why have a character in the movie at all (even in a cameo) if only to diminish the importance of representation? Refreshingly, Disney listened. Even though Wreck-It Ralph 2: Ralph Breaks the Internet is set to be released very soon on November 21, the scene in question will be re-animated to restore Princess Tiana to her correct skin tone....

When repeated, the specific phrase or single word can help you focus your intentions and calm your mind. In fact, a study from the journal Brain and Behavior found that repeating a mantra helps turn down the volume in your head, preventing the mind from wandering, planning, or worrying about the past....

In the case of Pfizer Consumer Healthcare’s current recall, nothing is actually wrong with the medicine itself. Instead, the problem seems to lie with the packaging. According to the alert, the dosage cup provided in the package is marked in teaspoons, while the instructions on the label are written using in milliliters. The recommended dosage of this medicine for a three-year-old is about five milliliters or one teaspoon. This might seem like nothing more than a classic mix-up but if a person reads the label and it says five milliliters, they might not realize the measurements are different and administer five teaspoons based on the marks on the dosage cup....
