Looking at much more than just the impact of a doll on the world, it looks at the importance of representation in the workplace. Here's everything we know.
After the meteoric success of the Barbie movie last summer, we are super excited about Netflix 's Black Barbie documentary, which is out next month. From Shondaland, the company that brought us Bridgerton and Inventing Anna, and executive produced by Shonda Rhimes herself, the documentary will explore the campaign for a Black Barbie and the journey so many women went on ensure it was made.
” Beulah's campaign for a Black Barbie began in the early 1960s a few years after she began working at Mattel. It took 20 years for this to happen, after designer Kitty Black Perkins joined the ranks, who based the doll on Diana Ross. Next, Kitty hired doll designer Stacey McBride Irby to work on the project.
