Barbie. She's Black! She's Beautiful! She's Dynamite! That is how the
first black Barbie doll was presented. However, Europe didn't get a black
Barbie. We got Ebony Christie instead. The dolls were identical and once
they are out of the box, you can't keep them apart. The Barbie saga
continued over the years and she has been released in many black versions
since. The only doll that is in chronological order here, is Black Barbie.
Then they are just randomly shown through the years of the sculpts, but
actually with the oldest used one last, with one of the newest dolls!
Here are other ethnicities of Barbie.
