sophia jay I agree. Im white and so are my kids but I would NOT care one bit if my daughter told me she wanted a black doll. Its just a doll and to say no would be teaching my child racism and that isn't right. I didnt even care that she played with her brother's toys when he grew out of playing with them. They're just kids.

When I was little I was a little confused about black dolls. There aren’t many black people in my family and I didn’t grow up with many black people around me, I was really confused, and I used to ask my mom why, she would answer “Because God wanted everyone to be different and special.” I once met a really nice girl, she was black, at first I was a little concerned to be her friend, but I started knowing her and started understanding that everybody is different.

When my daughter (age 3) received her first doll house, I made a special point to get black dolls (not every store carried a variety 10 years ago so I had to travel to different stores because I thought it was important to raise her with diversity. Fast forward- my daughter is 15 and she makes a mother proud. She cares about diversity and rights - BLM, women’s rights, etc. I now have 5 year old twin boys. Her toys have been passed down to them - pink/“girly” thing - baby dolls, doll house, my little pony, etc (as well as traditional “boy” toys). Just the other night we were watching a movie. There was one black character who was bald. My 5 year old son said “I like the bald man. He’s nice….” He didn’t describe him as “black” - his description was “bald”. I love that. Love wins ☮️💞

No your not but I agree with @Ruby Diaz

[@allnamesaretaken]

You rarely hear that word in the UK nowadays but i always assumed it was just a way to distinguish those from different parts of Asia. India is in Asia, a large part of Russia is in Asia, Turkey, Israel etc. etc. they are all Asian. I never understood why those who are not born in Asia consider themselves Asian or are classed as such because of their ancestors history. I have relatives born in the UK who would be classed as Asian but they consider themselves as British English due to the fact that they were born here, they don't see themselves as Asian even though their family tree on the other side of the family are descendants from parts of Asia. However, i have met many Americans and they are obsessed with using a continents name to categorise people even if those people are not from that continent simply because of how the person looks and the persons family heritage.

[@beekidsart1176]

GuildBankLooter i disagree. Kids learn from adults and toys, if they are thaught with only white, they wont understand the concept of race. My sister is a daycareworker, and a kid asked her co-worker if ”she didnt get to shower” since her skin was so dark(wich for me indicates that she had have any contact with other ethnics) Wich no kid really should think. I think we should teach our kids diversity at a young age, itll make them grow and understand the real world better.

[@tiegideon9816]

GuildBankLooter If you watched the video, you’d see that they are kind suggestions. No one forced anything. And you seem forget that the kids an actor

[@kamw3299]

You have to consider the context of why the kid actor doesn't want the doll, because the black doll is "ugly", "dumb", etc. So that's alarming that a kid would say such racist stuff. So of course these people are gonna be like, the black doll is just as good as the white doll.

Thank God my parents were more concerned with what kind of friends I played with than what dolls I played with. My favorite doll was a white boy with blue eyes and blond hair 💁🏽‍♀️

[@brookelynnbby]

My daughter appears 100% white to everyone who meets her considering i’m fully white and her father is only half white and half black, so she has been around all sorts of family members from the whitest skin color to the darkest skin color, she knows that every one is beautiful regardless of someones shade. That’s one of the things that I love about her being biracial, she knows where she comes from and no family member is better than the other. She loves all of them equally. Her friends are also different shades of the rainbow... I hope she forever feels this way because her father and I certainly do.

My mom got me all raced dolls. I had Asian, black, Latina, white. Mostly because I was biracial and she ( my mom) believed the world was changing for the better. And to adjust me to the world we live in. Even though I mostly went toward the black dolls because my mom was black and I thought "My moms beautiful" BUT I also went toward the ones that look more like me. But I never thought the dolls that didn't look like me were ugly, Just different.

5:30 to 7:16, I figured that went much deeper than support for the nanny after she'd told her she wasn't alone. The woman didn't know the cameras were on her and she tried to change her stance and make herself seem more accepting when she found out there were. Did that bother anybody else?

hugecoccdaddy First of all, you missed the point of my post. My biggest issue was the fact that she did a complete 180 when she found out she was being watched. That isn't okay, and, honestly, neither is prejudice of any kind. Secondly, I would never request that someone like another race more than their own. I wouldnt request that anyone favor *any* group of people based on color. It isn't okay to dislike, insult,*or favor* anybody based on color. Do you think that believing people should be respectful toward one another, get rid of prejudices/bias, and be capable of sticking to their guns when questioned about statements they made is asking too much? It shouldn't be difficult in the slightest. For the record, again, my original comment was addressing the reason she changed her claim and why, but it isn't *just* about the comments the woman made, or *just* about the way she tried hiding her real mindset when she discovered the cameras; *both* are an issue for me.

[@HJ-ju1dn]

hugecoccdaddy That's pretty uncalled for, man. Just because I can recognize bias doesnt mean I'm the same color as those this woman is referring to. I myself am not being biased right now, and I've been pretty relaxed this entire time. Calling this woman a coward and a racist isn't the same as throwing a hissy fit. Do you know what a real hissy fit looks like? This isn't it at all. Favoring anyone, including yourself, soully based on race isn't okay. Favoritism isn't right, and if I want to comment on someone's behavior, I will.
