Disney does have a history of racism.

I read comments in some articles about this and white people are telling the black families to get over, there's no racism, they're just trying to sue that sort of thing.

In the minds of whites, it's not okay for blacks to pull the race card. But they pull the race card when discrimination is directed at them.

BTW: There's a rather famous Disneyland episode of a family claiming Captain Hook was prejudice against blacks. Hook broke the rules and took off his glove to show the complaining family his skin was..... black.
And the answer is, I had a friend working there, and she was let go, for reporting just such an incident, years ago. Her supervisor was Hispanic, as was the coworker she reported for racism. In our conversation, she noted MOST of her coworkers were hispanic.

She loved the kids, no matter what race, and enjoyed her job because it was so much fun for her. She was really hurt that they chose to terminate her, and not the person who was "avoiding" people of color.

Got it.

(I couldn't figure out how you would know. And this, lol, is the obvious answer I didn't think of since you're out-of-state. Thanks.)

From what I seen, whites cry racism far more than blacks when things don't go their way. Whites play the race card in nearly any incident.

You don't get the point? The entire thing is ridiculous. That is the point. So it's illegal to daffy duck to pay more attention to one kid than another at a theme park? And folks wonder why children are little spoiled whiny brats anymore. Yes look at their idiotic parents. I sue hope these fools children don't suck at sports and some white kid gets more playing time than they do in pee wee ball. The world will end.

Is it in the Disney's White Rabbit's job description to have physical contact with the various minors roaming Disney land?
