Jonas J Campbell asks “What is a Pride Month Piece of Content?” Luckily, Disney has made a list.
Ever since I started a YouTube channel that aims to shine a light on woke elements of pop culture, I get a lot of pushback on what is considered “woke” and what is “definitely not woke.” While it can be subjective at times, I have to laugh when someone tries to tell me that non-binary characters in children’s show is not a representation of woke values, or that woke used to mean something else so my argument is invalid.
Well, today Disney did me a favor and outright stated that the following shows contain LGBTQ+ content by adding them to their “Pride Collection.”
I’m saving this list here at That Park Place for use as reference for myself and to be helpful to any people wishing to know how Disney classifies its content. Also, it might come in handy for when somebody questions if a children’s show is “woke.” Productions that are specifically marketed to underage viewers appear in bold text.

Of course, this is not an exhaustive list since other Disney+ content has been produced that heavily incorporates LGBTQ+ themes, whether or not Disney includes it in their Pride Collection this year. For instance, the episode of the Disney Junior reboot of Muppet Babies that features Gonzo coming out as a drag queen to his pre-school friends would definitely qualify as a GLAAD Nominated series but somehow did not make it into the Pride Collection this year.
