"Blind Barbie"
In conjunction with the American Federation for the Blind, Mattel have released a new Barbie Fashionista Doll with a white cane and sunglasses. We ask is this inclusion or tokenism?
An article posted on facebook by the Currier Mail has attracted some ugly comments: thanks to the volunteers of Vision Australia Radio Adelaide we bring those comments to life like never before.
Meanwhile, Sam tries to justify buying a Barbie Doll and claiming it on his tax return as "research" and Lizzie takes the Doll out and about to get some comments from members of the VI community.
