First Ever Hijab-Wearing Barbie Honors American Olympian

Recently on November 17 the first American Olympian Hijab Barbie doll released to the media. The idea came from an American group called Mattel; they believe that is it a great way to help young girls come out of their shell to be proud of where they come from and to still represent their culture in sporting events. According to the article Mattel says that the Barbie is an”inspiration for countless little girls who never saw themselves represented in sports and culture”. This can fall under the category of positive news because it is news they will begin to change the world. Since an action was taken and was completed, there is no doubt in my mind that their will be more dolls to inspire more kids. This can even lead to more positive outcomes like reducing racism. One small action can trigger many other important leading event; its just cause and affect.
