Hello! I want to bring a tradition in the AG Instagram community to amino. It's called Doll Of Colour Month.
What is it?
In September, Onceuponamericangirl makes prompts for each day of the week to celebrate people of colour. Here are this year's prompts

How do I ?
You can do a few different things...
1. Do the daily themes (or pick and choose like me)
2. Do the weekly themes
3. Don't do the themes and try to only post dolls of colour in September.
What is a doll of colour?
A doll of colour is any doll that isn't white. They can be black, First Nation, Asian, Hawaiian etc. If your doll has blonde hair, blue eyes and white skin, they aren't a doll of colour!

Why can't we celebrate white people?
White people have always had the power. They never got abused, had racial slurs, got their land taken etc. This month, we want to shine a light on minorities, and educate people about the past and how to make it right.
Start taking your photos! If you have any questions let me know!

I've seen this on Instagram! I've never gotten to participate because I've never had a doc. But now I have Melody so I'll try and just post photos of her! I've been meaning to do photo shoots with her anyway
It's the perfect opportunity to start
Sounds good! I am getting another doll like this,but atm I only have coral so I can’t enter.
You can start with one doll
Does Hispanic culture count, Bexly’s father was Mexican, that is where she got her last name Calvivé, but she inherited her mother’s looks.
Hispanic counts. Maybe she's half Mexican? I have a few dolls who are half doc

Ok
Do Hispanic dolls count?
I actually don’t have any DOCs beside Luci.
They do! I can look at your collection if you want
Jasmine and Luci are DOC's

Ahh thank you! :heart:
I don't get the point of this tbh. We already have a black history month

What she is saying is that Whites have had a history of being in charge, and we are celebrating other races besides Caucasians because of how many of us there are. We can make another event celebrating all races, but we will be doing this. She is not being racist, but I can see your point. If you have a problem with the idea, just don’t participate.
