My fingers are crossed for it but I have my doubts.

The Disney company is putting a focus on “inclusivity” - celebrating America with classic American music and patriotic songs has got to be on the chopping block.
Is Macy's and Boston Pops planned this year??? I don't think Disney as a whole would cross that line..........July 4th/NYE Pyro stopped at DHS in 2016.........
Flag Retreat still happens every day on Main Street......

I’m sure that’s on the list as well….
There are two lines Disney will not cross when it comes to shows. There will be a Fourth of July fireworks show because they simply will not be able to handle the PR that would come from not doing one when their competitors do. And the Candlelight Processional will happen, even if they continue to strip down the religious elements out of it... Despite it being a darn Christmas show.

Why? I celebrate inclusivity and America. The two things are not mutually exclusive.
Inclusivity does not mean getting rid of a U.S. themed celebration but including other national and cultural celebrations, like Chinese New Year and Diwali and Hanukkah and Oktoberfest.

We shall see. I know the voices of liberty are singing more Disney songs vs. traditional and patriotic. Little things like that are happening.
I’m guessing we have 3-5 years of 4th if things continue.
Let's not give TDO ideas!!!!!!!!! IMO, TDO should be focusing on Trolley Dancers, FOF with Full Cast and Finally........A Night Parade!!!!!

What's wrong with inclusivity and patriotism co-existing? I feel like with how diverse America is the two go hand in hand, no?

Disney can celebrate America while not celebrating 'Merica, I think.

How dare you suggest that a person (or company) can reject bigotry yet still be patriotic. This does not compute! There is only one way to patriot!Just posted today on the Disney blog...

So I kinda watched happily ever after tonight!

Yet they never respond to my questions about their "totally reasonable" position.
In addition to the above, the showtime time for Happily Ever After moves to 8:30pm beginning September 18.
