Disney has been accused of censoring same-sex love in Pixar movies in a leaked letter from employees of the animation studio.
The letter to the company’s leadership is signed by “the LGBTQIA+ Employees of Pixar & Their Allies” and was obtained in full by Judd Legum of Popular Information, though the date it was sent on remains unclear.
It comes as a result of Disney’s recent response to Florida’s ‘Don’t Say Gay’ bill, which is now just one signature away from becoming law in the state.
The company faced fierce backlash for opting to release a blanket statement of support for the LGBTQ+ community instead of condemning the legislation, which seeks to restrict “classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity” in primary schools.
