Dr. Livingstone, I presume Stepping out of the jungle gloom Into the mid-day sun What did you find there? Did you stand awhile and stare? Did you meet anyone? “I’ve seen butterflies galore I’ve seen people big and small I’ve still not found what I’m looking for” Thank you Moody Blues! In Africa Squeaks produced by Warner Brothers, the narrator introduces the audience to Africa. The journey begins at the heart of Darkest Africa. Porky Pig is leading a group of African people as they sing, carrying items. Then, during their song, they sing “We don’t know where we’re going, but we’re going!”. Meanwhile, a sign says, “Welcome to Africa Lions Club”. Then, Porky and the Africans approach a sour-pussed caricature of Spencer Tracy named Stanley.
