Lucinda Marshall, a Louisville citizen and founder of the Feminist Peace Network has posted this on her blog today. What an incredible conversation children could have about this. What are dolls/toys for ? Who markets them? Who creates them? Who benefits from their sales? What corporation owns the company that made these dolls? Does a homeless doll create awareness and help real homeless girls and boys? What is homelessness? How do people become homeless?This is RICH ( no pun) with possibility!
