Warning:
Potentially Harmful Content
EFW acknowledges that movies from our recent past often contain harmful language that reflect the bigotry, misogyny, colonialism, and white supremacy that we continue to struggle with today. We have not altered or modified the records of the original historical media. If you are seeing this notification on a Moving Image entry, it is likely that a contributor recognized dehumanizing content within that movie.

Young Worlds is a series produced by WCBS-TV from 1959 and later rebranded as World We Want by WOR-TV. On first glance it appears to be problematic. Series of films hosted by Person:Helen Hiett Waller, a white adult, with teenage panels "from around the world." The panels feature four older children, typically comprised of one teen who is from the United States, two European teens fluent in English, and a one teenager who is a person of color.
