Kickstarter: The Angelica Doll: A Natural Hair Doll For Young Girls

BOOST AND SUPPORT!!

(”Sophia wanted long straight hair, and she even started expressing a strong dislike for her facial features and skin tone.” Don’t fucking tell me representation, dolls, toys don’t matter to children. Think internalized racism and self hatred happen by accident? It’s rampant among the Black community and Black girls are especially targeted).

now every black girl i see i want to get them this doll. on the train last night there was a beautiful black girl playing with her coloring book with her mom. i wanted to approach her mom and tell her about this doll. i didn’t of course. i don’t know how i could without coming off as a weirdo.

still i certainly do wish i could get every black little girl in america this doll. maybe i can’t do it for every black girl but i can certainly do it for a few. i’ll figure it out.
