I mean it's not "Birth of a Nation", but the focal point is setting Song of the South in maybe reconstruction era South and maybe after the Civil War, but the film never really goes into detail on the particulars. Uncle Remus and Aunt Tempy may be gainfully employed at the plantation or they could just be slaves and the fact is that Disney focused on the "lightheartedness" to try to uncomplicate this very complicated scenario.

In essence it's not what the film says, but what the film doesn't say in all its attempts to gloss over a very odd real-life situation.

No one ever says "slave", yet here are a group of black people very happily toiling away in fields for their white "employers".
