Every culture has some story involving getting turned into an animal in order to learn a lesson. It's not something white story tellers do to brown people.Emperor's New Groove was about an emperor that needed humbled. Kuzco wasn't turned into a llama because the creator's thought Peruvians were subhuman. He was turned into a llama because he was a self centered asshat that needed to learn what humility was. One of the posters for the movie even had human Kuzco standing in front of the word "me". Almost every instance of Penny Proud being a bully was in episodes with the exact same intent. Teaching kids to not be self centered. She was pretty damn light skinned, too.
They forgot a trope: black math nerd.
