So I got really excited while reading this article about the
July issue of Italian Voguue= A Black Barbie dedication supplement.
Also, this supplement appears to be well orchestrated publicity for Barbie's next line of black dolls, called the "So In Style" dolls. British Vogue reports that:
"[T]he So In Style dolls ... have been designed with more authentic-looking black features, including a new facial sculpt that has fuller lips, a wider nose, more distinctive cheek bones and curlier hair."

I am still going to run out and get the mag, but did NyMag really have to say this:
"We would rather have seen another all-black issue with actual people. But maybe it's harder to find sponsorship for that."
WOW! I think I read that line three times.This just serves as a reminder that Progress is still needed in all avenues...#forthestruggle.
