Come on Disney. England had a Black Queen, there's gotta be a story there.
I signed the petition and found these customised princess dolls:
Those are nice, but they are black Barbie dolls, not affiliated with Disney. Mattel has had black Barbie dolls for a long time now.
Yes Passions, you are right. I remember buying one for my daughter in the 80's and dressed her up as a witch for haloween- my daughter and the doll. At least we have got something untill Disney start listening to its customers.

These dolls are gorgeous. I love how they sometimes contrast the dark skin with lighter eyes.

I don't know if anybody knows this, or it was posted in the group, but Disney is adding a ninth Disney princess... and she's black lol. Her name's Princess Tiana (originally Princess Maddie), she's 19, and she falls in love (and presumably marries) a Prince Harry, who's European (and described as a young Cary Grant-type)... European traditionally means white, right?
I am so thrilled about her. I'm glad they changed her name too. Maddie just sounds like some old granny name and Tiana is much more fitting for a BAP (Black American Princess). Anyway, I want to see her handsome Prince. It took several years and a lot of tweaking but I think Disney might have got this one right. And if not, I give them an A for effort.
