Banned Crayon Color Names

Crayola changed a few crayon color NAMES that weren't politically correct. They also "retired" many other color names that weren't popular. Jim and Dawn tell the stories behind Flesh color, Indian Red, and Prussian Blue. We try to tell a fun story in this film. If our little films make you feel good please consider subscribing. Thank you from Jim and Dawn. VIDEO NOTES YOU MIGHT WANT TO KNOW ABOUT: 1) "Banned"?? Didn't they just "change" the name? Yup, at least two of the names are banned by management and won't return in a "discontinued colors" special issue or a future "Retired Colors" issue. They want to avoid trouble. 2) "Hey, I had the Flesh Crayon years after 1962!" Check this official link: https://www.crayola.com/faq/another-t.... Many people found FLESH in new boxes years after they changed the name in 1962. That's because tons of old stock was still on shelves and warehouses over a decade later. But 1962 is correct as the year they changed the name. Other colors that children had loved for decades have have been "retired" rather than banned. 3) "This is woke and political!" It's not. Go somewhere else for that. We're just reporting what people said and did. We didn't say it. They did. 3) ERROR FIX: at 07:09 it's actually orange-red and orange-yellow. 4) AI Voice? Nope. We don't use AI voices. It's just us. 5) Winners video:    • Crayon Winners Picked | From Our Banned Cr...   6) Dandelion seems to be back!
