Says you. Its just a doll from a bygone age. Its says nothing about today or race. Trying to airbrush it out of existence is not a way forward. In many ways its important to understand exactly what it is and was is important for young people. Yes you dont want it as a new CBBC character but pretending it does not exist is silly.
