Black Owned Businesses That Sell Black Dolls

For years, my mother has been making dolls. Black dolls specifically. She told me she makes them because “Black children need to see themselves.”

She’s disturbed by the lack of diversity that has existed in the doll market and also by the past and present effects of this lack of diversity.

While she continues to create her doll collection, we’ve decided to share other entrepreneurs who have created their own Black doll businesses.
