The incredibly sassy and courageously independent Princess Jasmine is the focus of this week's episode. She was part of the famed Disney Renaissance of the 90's, and holds the title of the first DPOC-- "Disney Princess of Color.” Join us on a magic carpet ride for part one as Sarah discusses the origins of the story of Aladdin, the production of the film, and the reactions (both favorable and not) to the final product. An episode about Princess Jasmine: your wish is our command!
