I think its a big deal because the Disney image is changing. Known for years for the clean cut, all-American looks of its employees, even Disney has had to accept that fact that it must change - slightly - or risk being relegated to the garbage heap of nostalgia.
I was much impressed on my recent trip to see so many people of color, people of size, and little persons at DLR. I thought it was cool to see the employees reflect the reality of the world I live in every day.
