Introducing a brand new series from Unsung Princesses: The Friday Featurette. In these mini bonus episodes, Willow takes a closer look at some of the real life women of Disney animation and their contributions to film history.

Unsung Princesses is BACK! In this episode, Willow looks at one of the most iconic characters in animation: Minnie Mouse. Minnie's legacy may seem to speak for itself, but her story has more to it than most people know.

Disney's Sleeping Beauty was a commercial failure when it first premiered in 1959. Has it managed to stand the test of time? Willow sits down with guest Stephanie to explore the lasting feminist legacy of this fairy tale feature.

It's Lady and the Tramp vs. One Hundred and One Dalmatians in this double feature episode! Willow looks at each film individually, including the real women behind the scenes, and then draws some comparisons to see what feminist conclusions we can draw from these two canine-centric classics.

In the premiere episode, Willow discusses the 1950 animated film, "Cinderella". What is feminist (and not feminist) about this classic? And who were the real life women involved in making it? Special guest Katy also drops by to explore the themes and legacy of Disney's "Cinderella".

Unsung Princesses: a new podcast celebrating the women of Disney animation. New episodes Wednesdays beginning July 1, 2020.
