 \, Keeta Gladue explores Disney’s representation of Indigenous female chara
 cters\, how those stories are told\, and what they tell us about the world 
 around us. From what is a “true story” to Halloween costumes\, "Decolonizin
 g Disney Princesses" is about which stories are told\, who tells those stor
 ies\, and why.</p><p><strong><img class="wp-image-18330 size-thumbnail alig
