Hi Barbie! Netflix is exploring the world of Barbie with a documentary on the Black Barbie doll. Deemed more than just a doll, “Black Barbie” celebrates the momentous impact three Black women at Mattel had on the evolution of the Barbie brand as we know it. Through these charismatic insiders’ stories, the documentary tells the story of how the first Black Barbie came to be in 1980, examining the importance of representation and how dolls can be crucial to the formation of identity and imagination. “Black Barbie” premieres June 19, only on Netflix.
