Jim Crow, Fats, Preacher, Straw Hat, and Glasses are characters in Disney's Dumbo.
Jim Crow was voiced by the late Cliff Edwards in the movie and by Kevin Michael Richardson in House of Mouse.
The rest of the crows were voiced Hall Johnson Choir.
The quintet of crows are generally good-natured, warm-hearted, caring, and friendly, albeit with tendencies towards jokes and teasing, as was the case of Timothy and Dumbo over the idea of a flying elephant.
Ashamed of their initial behavior upon hearing Dumbo's tragic story, however, the crows acted as surrogate father figures and proved themselves to be excellent and wise mentors by teaching Dumbo to fly through the use of psychological encouragement.
Alongside Timothy, they provide Dumbo with much needed confidence, courage and support, and it is their involvement that ultimately leads to Dumbo's rise to stardom, and reunion with his incarcerated mother.
As a group, they have a familial camaraderie, referring to themselves (and others close to them) as "brothers".
Dumbo is often criticized as racist for the inclusion of the black crows as African-American caricatures; specifically the naming of Jim, which is a reference to the infamous Jim Crow laws.
However, many critics, pundits and personalities reject these criticisms, noting that the majority of the crows are portrayed by African American actors (with the exception of Cliff Edwards) and their lead animator described them as being spoofs of many black entertainers at the time, with their clothes being based on 1930-40s fashion, such as Jim's bowler hat and spats.
The crows are sympathetic towards Dumbo's plight - it is in fact Timothy whom they mock with their song, for taking Jim's joke seriously, and there's no way they could have known about Dumbo's tragic history before Timothy's lecture.
