What's the point of discussion. No individual will change their views on either side so how about we don't discuss and treat one another with respect. Or is that to much to ask. Good luck with the toy company.
As a child I remember not noticing Colour or creed and we were all one ,until the Adults came along and divided us with tags.
has a look of Chucky
Is that because grown ups need to broaden their views and minds so as to start thinking inclusively like children do? Biased is learned.
Bless her doing this as she would rather waste time than get a Job
More? It’s all you talk about.
Indeed. Native Brits should be asking themselves if they want to be a minority in their own country, because it's going that way.
DefundTheBBC
Talking about it is racist,did u know?
Zzzzzzzzzzzz
Beautiful!
🙄
Christ 🤣
The Trotters had black and white dolls in the 90s. It’s definitely not a new thing.
That doll looks like Mel B 😂😂
We've heard nothing but 'race' for about 2 years now. What's he moaning about?
The Anti-British Broadcasting Company
I brought son up 2c everyone as equal & never labelled anyone by appearance BLM happened &now all he sees is difference &victims it’s so sad current climate is making us more divisive labelling & putting people in boxes is NOT making us equal victims equals less hope
I think Chinese straight guy toy is under represented
You still promoting this company? I thought BBC were advert free.
How unique and original, because there hasn't been anything in the news about diversity for at least an hour.
Are we allowed to say white Christmas?
I do wish people would stop trying to reinvent the wheel!! We are a white family but for Christmas one year my uncle & aunt sent me a black doll, which I adored because she was so different from any of my other dolls. That would have been in 1959/1960, so not exactly a new idea!!
In other news, somebody else set up a company and became an overnight millionaire, but we won't run that story because it portrays hope and light and excitement, no this is the BBC and we just chat nonsense to make it all seem normal DefundTheBBC
Boring ! Give it a rest.
What about get lost
talk about race amongst yourselves, white people are just getting on with life
I have always been willing to have a open talk about race, but what they really want is a struggle session and with me it doesn't generally go well.
More crap about race, when is this nonsense going to end.
Wrong. We have tried all that for years. you can talk all you want, nothing is going to change. Black people need to change their strategy. As long as other people own your destiny, it means you are not free.
I think we should sell more white dolls in Africa.
Absolutely. We’re not divided enough in the UK. Let’s create more division through “open” discussions.
Just a word meaning common ancestry
Yet anyone who discuses it is branded racist so how's that going to work
We have TRANSformers so why not
so just create more division. can we go back to being a color blind society yet? stop bringing up skin color. imagine purposefully creating racism against your own race
Barbie has been diverse for decades same with Lego and dozens of other toy companies
We played with diverse dolls in the 60s it not new news
Racist news Racist company.
Oh right. So it’s nothing to do with selling more dolls then and using the BBC as a free advertising platform under the guise of something else?
BORING
Generally, if you try and talk openly about race you are accused of being racist!
So shes set up a company, and is still moaning, typical of them. Is it a 'diverse company', or is it a company, set up to make toys that look like black people, just to sell to black people?, wears the diversity in that?, just say it like it is. Why is this even news worthy BBC?.
Another day, another day of race baiting
This is the 7th time the BBC have provided free advertising for this woke nonsense.
Race or colour? I am really unclear that they are the same thing. I am told I have to care. But I am unsure that I do. I tend take folk as they come but apparently that is not enough.
Really!!
Really quite bored talking about race ALL THE TIME
No no no! We don’t need discussions about race with children! My white blue eyed, blonde haired daughter loves moana! Race isn’t an issue with children so please don’t make it one. When pointing out her new school friend who is indian she said she’s the girl with the fringe!
Open discussion about what? The crime rate? All the standings? The shocking rate of single mothers? Or does she just mean more feel good platitudes about diversity?
Yes. Let’s talk about how racist this person is.
You don’t want open discussions. You want approved discussions.
There must be a whole department at the BBC dedicated to highlighting division and grievance. Doing more harm than good most of the time.
Sell a white one with coloured sharpies ……sorted oh, and include a black one for them hideous looking slugs above the eyes….
More woke nonsense. I remember my sister playing with different colored dolls in the late 80s / early 90s.
Only ONE human race.
Yeah because we definitely don’t talk enough about race in this country already … 🙄🙄🙄
Race is completely made up and has no scientific basis
Why is this story out now.....are sales down for her company and she needs the advertising as I know I have never heard of such a company
hahahahaha the BBC are a joke. Thanks
We live in a antiWhite culture. BLM invaded peaceful communities, raised funds to help & support black people but where did the money go ? This is what it is like to be black, take take take, because of historical events that for some reason affects their lives today.
And who will buy this? Only black people? Am Hispanic and my baby girl doesn't look like that doll so she can't relate or force her to buy a doll that's different
Another box ticked BBC
Rat?
‘ they talk as though we are one voice with one identity from one country. It does us no favours ‘
Race has never in my lifetime been talked about more than it is now. In fact it’s the mainstay of about 25% of output from the BBC.
I'm all for it! Now we just need dolls with disabilities. There were never any dolls like me as a kid so more inclusive dolls is always a good thing.
This is shocking ....when kindergarten kids already base how nice or how smart or how bad the next child is, based on the colour of skin ...even black kids prefer white skin what exactly are we instilling in our kids ...?
At this point i think the tired diversity thing has reached the end, we don't need articles like this anymore, mission accomplished.
No such thing as race there is only one human race we are divided by culture, politics, religion and economics.
BBC playing identity politics again.
Not news next please
‘More diverse dolls have become available in recent years’…..err no….I had dolls of varying colours in 1975. They all played very nicely together 🥰
'Divers' is alle rassen door elkaar. Ik zie hier enkel een zwarte Afrikaanse, en dus NUL diversiteit.
Man people have to be tired of hearing about race and gayness and transgenderism. It is all so played out ear vomit at this point.
See! This all diversity crap is about making money. Whining is a very lucrative business.
Eskimo dolls now!
