I dunno, the Jungle Book doesn't strike me as so bad...?

Ape is based on Louis Prima, a white guy

I don't get what specifically about King Louie codes as "black", it's not nearly as straightforward as the crows in Dumbo or the cats in Lady & the Tramp. Louis basically plays himself - a goofy jazz singer. His overriding goal is to get the secret of fire from Mowgli (who is also, incidentally, not white). The argument that a white guy acting (arguably) like a black guy while expressing a desire to be more like another non-white character is RACIST seems pretty convoluted to me.
