“My thought process was, what a better way to showcase all these standards along with huge lessons of overcoming differences, spreading kindness, communication and chasing your dreams,” she continued., which was released in 2022, features a family of explorers with voices from Gabrielle Union, Lucy Liu, Jake Gyllenhaal and Dennis Quaid. Among the characters is Ethan Clade, voiced by Jaboukie Young-White, who is the first-ever out-gay character in a Disney film.
“None of my students cared or batted an eye. They didn’t even know this was a big deal until the board member and the state made it a big deal,” Barbee said adding that it’s been more traumatizing to the students having an investigator interrogating them.
