Answer 1

The 'Censored Eleven' are eleven Warner Bros. cartoons removed from distribution due to racial stereotypes, not officially banned by government but by a distribution company in 1968.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Censored Eleven are a group of eleven animated cartoons produced by Warner Bros. between 1931 and 1944, which were later withheld from syndication because of the racial stereotypes they presented. These cartoons were never officially banned by any government body, but they were kept out of public distribution due to the offensive content they contained. This decision was made in 1968 by United Artists (then owners of the associated distribution rights), to avoid perpetuating harmful stereotypes.
