Mattel has outlined a number of ways they will “do more” in the fight against racism through their popular Barbie line. In a statement on their website and on social media, the company writes, “Research shows, starting at the age of five, girls stop believing that their gender can be anything.

‘You Should Have Left’ Is More Tortured Soul Then Creepy Haunted House [Review]
