.@American_Girl salesperson to my daughter today: “You want a doll that looks like you, or you want the pretty one?” One hell of a way to ruin a 5 year olds day, and Christmas weekend, in ways you won’t even understand, especially for a brown kid. Horrible experience.
Thank you all for the comments and support! Wishing you all a blessed Christmas and holiday season 🙏🏽
@aayoub @American_Girl You should have politely corrected her. The one that looks like my daughter is the beautiful one. You can give the pretty one to those other kids.
@aayoub @American_Girl This is the most horrific thing I’ve seen on this app all day… and there are plenty of things on here to be horrified by. I’m so sorry. Your daughter deserves better. Thanks for speaking out.
@aayoub @American_Girl I'll take $500 for things that never happened.
@aayoub @American_Girl Your beautiful little girl is as much an American Girl as anyone, anywhere. I hope this company Is watching/listening. Deplorable.
@aayoub @American_Girl Horrible! I’m surprised she didn’t ask if she wanted the non-binary one. Sadly Mattel is fully onboard with the dark side promoting gender confusion and puberty blockers.
@aayoub @TarquinVas @American_Girl Did your daughter tell the clerk that she thought one of the dolls was pretty? That's the only rational context I can place those comments in.
