All This And Rabbit Who?

All This And Rabbit Stew was released in theaters on September 20, 1940. It featured Bugs Bunny and a slow-witted African American hunter resembling Stepin Fetching, the popular actor and comedian of the mid 20th century. 

The cartoon was controversial  due to its racial stereotyping and and was eventually put under the "Censored Eleven" and hasn't been seen on television since 1968. The hunters character is continued only through Elmer Fudd.
