Description

Writes Fulbeck: "What celebrity do you most resemble? ... This question starts a rollicking ride that is part autobiography, part family portrait, part pop-culture survey, and all Disney* all the time. Watch as Fulbeck documents for the first time his uncanny resemblance to Pocahontas, Mulan, Aladdin, and other 'ethnically ambiguous' animated characters... This video examines the muting of race in mainstream media and its effects on multiracial Americans."
