Josh D’Amaro’s Thoughtful Message On Reopening Of Disney Parks Worldwide

Josh D'Amaro who was recently named Chairman of Disney Parks, Experiences and Products issued a thoughtful message on the reopening of Disney Parks Worldwide, reassuring guests that the MAGIC is indeed returning. You can read his full letter below: With the announcement of the proposed reopening dates for the Disneyland Resort, we are one more exciting step closer to reopening all of our Disney parks and experiences around the world. Throughout the past few weeks, we have reopened Shanghai Disneyland, Disney Springs and several Disney stores, and set dates for both Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resorts, with more announcements coming soon. We are purposefully taking baby steps during this very intentional phased approach. As one of the first major theme parks to close our operations and the last to reopen, we have been deliberate about keeping the health and safety of our cast, guests and local communities top of mind. And as we look forward to bringing our cast members back to work, and welcoming you back as cherished guests – we know it will take all of us working together responsibly to recapture the magic. We’re fortunate to be guided by a talented team of professionals who’ve helped us implement a variety of new health and safety measures reflecting the guidance of local health and government authorities.

Fans Petition an Idea to Re-Theme Splash Mountain to Princess and the Frog

Some Disney fans have felt inspired by recent events surrounding the unfortunate event surrounding the death of George Floyd, now they are calling for racial sensitivity and asking The Walt Disney Company to re-theme the popular Splash Mountain rides in Disneyland, Magic Kingdom and Tokyo Disneyland after the 2009 animated film “The Princess and the Frog.” The log flume attraction that is more than 30 years old is currently themed after Disney’s 1946 movie “Song of the South,” which has been criticized for decades over it's portrayal of African Americans. However, Disney fans believe re-theming the ride after Disney’s first and only African American princess – Tiana – would be a step in the right direction for the company. The Walt Disney Company recently released a statement that denounced racism and the death of George Floyd in late May in a message sent out to employees: Resolve in a Time of Unrest: A Message to Fellow Employees Dear Fellow Employee, The recent killing of George Floyd as well as other instances of lethal attacks and harassment of unarmed black citizens in our nation continue to drive outrage and calls for action by people of all cultural backgrounds, including many of our employees. Feelings of grief and anger cause us to confront the inscrutable idea that the lives of some are deemed less valuable…
