Asian representation is even more scarce, with multi-talented Chinese actress, television producer and pop singer Fan Bingbing as its lone pillar.

According to Forbes, sales for the once-beloved doll have steadily declined in recent years, with little sign of improvement. Faced with competition from Hasbro (responsible for those Ana and Elsa dolls many of us can’t seem to escape) and a saturated market, Mattel is having difficulty connecting with young girls -- who are also increasingly ethnically diverse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Data from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/03/04/390672196/for-u-s-children-minorities-will-be-the-majority-by-2020-census-says\" target=\"_blank\">2014 Census Bureau\u003c/a> reveals that, by 2020, \"more than half of the nation's children are expected to be part of a minority race or ethnic group.\" It seems Mattel has responded in kind, if the company's decision to mass-produce and distribute DuVernay’s doll is a sign of things ahead. It's a choice in line with a shift in branding for the company at large -- see, for example, Mattel’s recent collaboration with Italian luxury fashion house Moschino, for a promotional ad featuring a multi-ethnic cast and — wait for it — a boy. (It has long been noted that boys play with Barbies, so it looks like Mattel has boarded the train many have been riding for decades. Welcome!)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TULVRlpsNWo\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that you know what you know, are you looking to get your hands on a mini version of Director DuVernay? Well, cool your credit card. Consider this Barbie the second coming of Tickle Me Elmo a la '96, as the \u003cem>New York Daily News\u003c/em> reports the doll, which retails for $65, sold out in less than 20 minutes. As The Grapevine Editor and The Root staff writer Yesha Callahan recently wrote about the rapid sellout, it's something Mattel should take seriously.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People want to see dolls in their image and in the image of those people they admire,\" \u003ca href=\"http://www.theroot.com/blogs/the_grapevine/2015/12/here_s_why_ava_duvernay_s_barbie_sold_out_within_minutes_after_hitting_the.html\" target=\"_blank\">writes Callahan\u003c/a>. \"If Mattel wants to continue to make an impact, someone in its R&D department better start doling out ideas about how to jump on this.” So Mattel — challenge accepted, or nah?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile: If we can’t have Ava, we might as well have fun dreaming up options for who Mattel should recreate next.

According to Forbes, sales for the once-beloved doll have steadily declined in recent years, with little sign of improvement. Faced with competition from Hasbro (responsible for those Ana and Elsa dolls many of us can’t seem to escape) and a saturated market, Mattel is having difficulty connecting with young girls -- who are also increasingly ethnically diverse.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Data from the \u003ca href=\"http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/03/04/390672196/for-u-s-children-minorities-will-be-the-majority-by-2020-census-says\" target=\"_blank\">2014 Census Bureau\u003c/a> reveals that, by 2020, \"more than half of the nation's children are expected to be part of a minority race or ethnic group.\" It seems Mattel has responded in kind, if the company's decision to mass-produce and distribute DuVernay’s doll is a sign of things ahead. It's a choice in line with a shift in branding for the company at large -- see, for example, Mattel’s recent collaboration with Italian luxury fashion house Moschino, for a promotional ad featuring a multi-ethnic cast and — wait for it — a boy. (It has long been noted that boys play with Barbies, so it looks like Mattel has boarded the train many have been riding for decades.

You can \u003ca href=\"https://serialpodcast.org/\" target=\"_blank\">download the first episode right here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike the first season, in which host Sarah Koenig and her production team selected a little-known and nearly cold murder case from a Baltimore suburb as the subject of their investigation, this season revolves around the well-known controversy of Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, an American soldier stationed in Afghanistan, who walked away from his base one night in 2009 and wound up living as a hostage of the Taliban for five years. The Obama Administration successfully negotiated for his release in May 2014, trading five prisoners from Guantanomo Bay in return -- a move that was highly criticized by the GOP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"story-body-text story-content\">Since that time, the soldier has found himself at the center of a heated debate: Was he a deserter who endangered his fellow troops with his actions, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/13/us/john-mccains-comments-on-bowe-bergdahl-bring-rebuke-from-lawyer.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sen. John McCain, among others, has argued\u003c/a>? Or a would-be (if confused) hero, who set out to warn top Army officials about serious problems within his platoon, as Bergdahl himself insists in the podcast's first episode? Bergdahl is currently awaiting a ruling on whether his case will go before a court-martial; found guilty of all charges, he could face life in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In putting together the new season, \u003cem>Serial\u003c/em> producers used some 25 hours of recorded conversation between Bergdahl and Hollywood screenwriter Mark Boal (\u003cem>The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty\u003c/em>), who reached out to Bergdahl a few months after he was released from captivity in the hopes of eventually turning the soldier's story into a movie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m going, 'Good grief, I’m in over my head,'\" we hear Bergdahl say in the premiere episode, recounting the first moments away from his base. \"Suddenly, it really starts to sink in that I really did something bad. Or, not bad, but I really did something serious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We'll be covering the sure-to-be-addictive story as the season continues, but for now: \u003ca href=\"https://serialpodcast.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Get listening!\u003c/a> Initial discussion points include a new theme song and advertisers other than MailChimp. Whatever happens, you'll want to be able to trade theories about it around the water cooler.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile -- if you had any doubt about the high-profile podcast's potential to actually change the course of subjects' lives -- recall that a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/pop/2015/11/06/serial-update-judge-orders-adnans-case-to-be-reopened/\" target=\"_blank\">Maryland judge recently reopened the case of Adnan Syed\u003c/a>, the subject of Season 1, which could cut short the life sentence Syed is currently serving for murder.

The second season of the \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2014/11/24/business/media/serial-podcastings-first-breakout-hit-sets-stage-for-more.html\" target=\"_blank\">wildly successful podcast\u003c/a>, a longform spinoff from \u003cem>This American Life,\u003c/em> debuted today. You can \u003ca href=\"https://serialpodcast.org/\" target=\"_blank\">download the first episode right here\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unlike the first season, in which host Sarah Koenig and her production team selected a little-known and nearly cold murder case from a Baltimore suburb as the subject of their investigation, this season revolves around the well-known controversy of Sergeant Bowe Bergdahl, an American soldier stationed in Afghanistan, who walked away from his base one night in 2009 and wound up living as a hostage of the Taliban for five years. The Obama Administration successfully negotiated for his release in May 2014, trading five prisoners from Guantanomo Bay in return -- a move that was highly criticized by the GOP.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp class=\"story-body-text story-content\">Since that time, the soldier has found himself at the center of a heated debate: Was he a deserter who endangered his fellow troops with his actions, as \u003ca href=\"http://www.nytimes.com/2015/10/13/us/john-mccains-comments-on-bowe-bergdahl-bring-rebuke-from-lawyer.html\" target=\"_blank\">Sen. John McCain, among others, has argued\u003c/a>? Or a would-be (if confused) hero, who set out to warn top Army officials about serious problems within his platoon, as Bergdahl himself insists in the podcast's first episode? Bergdahl is currently awaiting a ruling on whether his case will go before a court-martial; found guilty of all charges, he could face life in prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In putting together the new season, \u003cem>Serial\u003c/em> producers used some 25 hours of recorded conversation between Bergdahl and Hollywood screenwriter Mark Boal (\u003cem>The Hurt Locker, Zero Dark Thirty\u003c/em>), who reached out to Bergdahl a few months after he was released from captivity in the hopes of eventually turning the soldier's story into a movie.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’m going, 'Good grief, I’m in over my head,'\" we hear Bergdahl say in the premiere episode, recounting the first moments away from his base. \"Suddenly, it really starts to sink in that I really did something bad. Or, not bad, but I really did something serious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
