I don't always agree with Jim Hill but there are times when he really gets it. And this is one of those times. He scored a column by former Disney animator Floyd Norman, talking about being a black animator at the Walt Disney Company. Norman, in case you don't know, was the only black animator at the Mouse House during the 1950's and 1960's. He worked on many classic Disney animated flicks, including Sleeping Beauty, The Jungle Book, Mulan, Toy Story 2 and Monsters Inc. Former Disney writer Charles Snows once called Norman "The Lone Negro," an nickname Norman finds hilarious.

There's the occasional bitter mixed in with the funny, as when Norman talks about the fact that he was forced to commute from Los Angeles to Burbank every day. The reason? He knew a black man could never rent an apartment in Burbank or even Glendale.

"I've always loved Toontown in the Roger Rabbit cartoons," Norman writes. "Toontown was the special area of Tinseltown where cartoon characters were segregated because they were -- Toons. I've always thought this a brilliant metaphor for racial inequities in the real world."
