The Walt Disney Company: Stop the licensing of insulting, racist Tonto products

This petition had 3,653 supporters

The Issue

The Halloween costume market has begun. Costume elements based on the ridiculous Tonto character in the recent Disney film, have begun to appear on websites such as this one: http://www.partycity.com/product/deluxe+tonto+raven+headband.do?producttargetid=538235&gclid=CLG2yKDDkrkCFSJqMgod7hcAhw.

These products perpetuate racist stereotypes of Native Americans. We are not a Halloween Costume! Disney's loss on the terrible Lone Ranger film should not be made up by licensing products insulting to native people.
