'The live performance in our park did not reflect our core values, and we regret it took place.'
A video of the performance spread quickly on social media Thursday featuring dozens of students from The Port Neches-Groves “Indianettes” High School drill team, a group out of Texas. Each member is dressed in fringed outfits, danced with moves similar to those seen in Native American cultures and chanted,"I-N-D-I-A-N-S scalp 'em, Indians, scalp 'em.
In a statement Friday, a Disney spokesperson said,"The live performance in our park did not reflect our core values, and we regret it took place. It was not consistent with the audition tape the school provided and we have immediately put measures in place so this is not repeated.” In case you're wondering, here are some of the animatronic figures being removed from Disneyland's JUNGLE CRUISE for being racist.
