I wrote earlier this week briefly on the new black Barbies and the backlash that has taken place in response to the hair types and bling-bling (truly larger-than-life gold jewelry in this case) the Barbies were wearing.

Well, check out this post on Jezebel.com: “Dear Mattel, this is how you make Barbie more diverse”. I was floored. Just floored. One of these Barbies looks just like my little sister. I never thought I’d live to see the day when Barbies actually reflected what my family looks like (check out the one above)!
