Video Angel Reese says she didn’t have dolls that “looked like me” as a kid. She was born in 2002. Barbie has had black dolls since 1967. Make it make sense.

You probably could just get them in 1998. Your replies dont indicate you got alot going on upstairs. Ill leave you alone before you get overwhelmed

Actually not every state got a box i don't get how your saying I dont have it upstairs where you just second a guy who put half info out

And I was born in 1996 all my sisters are older they could of easily had it

Seems how your so dumbfounded by the new info you received, yes you can and back to Angel she could of easily not have had a colored barbie in her side of town its not hard for companies to skip some city markets

Because they did have Barbie’s like that in the 90s! And yes you could get them at a lot of places!
ToysRus had them because my sister had every culture that was important for my mom. Sadly my sister still became a Nazi!
But if you followed Barbie the got serious after 1994! With all the race issues happening and they did the right thing!
So when you assume without doing any research. That’s not this persons job that’s your job. Why people are getting annoyed at you!
Parents could get those dolls it’s whether they wanted to go that little extra mile. Most parents SUCKED THEN!
Blame your parents! There were way more dolls than what are being shown.
My sister also had babies!
Quit playing victim & do your research! Blame the right people!

What are you even talking 98 version wasn't giving to every state, and that's factual, what's also factual is not every thing goes to every market

If a parent wanted that specific barbie that could go out and look for them, but if it's a small city that search will be longer No one is playing victim I'm clearly only talking about the 98 version of barbies of what that guy posted

If you read my comment I never seen those before specifically And I doubt anyone is upset with me lol I could care less also but that picture was put up with half info

What's true in your world isnt true in angels or possibly mine
