Racist or Stereotypical?Mexican Barbie
In my observation, a doll cannot be "Racist". I think Mattel created a stereotypical doll which I think is probably too much (the addition of the doggie).
QUOTE There are more than 200 Barbies in Mattel's Dolls of the World collection, all dressed in costumes that pay homage to different countries. The collection debuted in 1980 with Parisian, British, and Italian dolls and is aimed at kids and adult collectors alike.
But the most recent versions, especially ones representing Latin America, are causing controversy online. The newest Mexico Barbie, released in June 2012, has been rediscovered by Barbie enthusiasts -- and is being called out by critics recently for being offensive rather than educational. Source 9
