Racial Stereotypes in Cartoons

Wee Boy: so Dave, guess who would win in a race. The Roadrunner or Speedy Gonzales.
Me: how do you know who Speedy Gonzales is?
Wee Boy: oh he’s on the new Looney Tunes show.
Me: oh. I thought they stopped making shows with him because he’s a racial stereotype
Wee Boy: Oh he’s still on the show and it’s fine. . They just made it so he delivers the pizza now.
