So... my daughter Lucy decides to play Barbies, but she said she was playing "African Barbies". She designed the clothes, built the rondavel complete with "thatched" roof, and even added a firepit later on.I'm not sure if this is good or bad, but since this blog is about learning to become an American African, I thought I'd share what it's like from an eight-year-old's perspective. Maybe even our Barbies are becoming enculturated. I think it's the water...
