#FotoViral La emoción de una nena rubia que recibe una muñeca negra

Sophia, de 3 años, dejó los pañales y su madre decidió hacerle un regalo para celebrarlo.

Juntas eligieron la muñeca de "La Doctora Juguetes" -un dibujo animado que cuenta las andanzas de una pequeña negra hija de una médica que cura a sus pacientes los juguetes. 

Cuando llegaron a la caja para pagar, se encontraron con una cajera racista que intentó convencer a la pequeña que cambiara el juguetepues "la muñeca no era parecida a ella".

Firme en sus convicciones, la pequeña Sophia exclamó: "¡Pero si se parece a mí! Es doctora como yo. Es una niña bonita y yo soy una niña bonita. ¿Ve su hermoso cabello y su estetoscopio?". 

Su madre, orgullosa de una respuesta que demuestra que el racismo no es innato, publicó la historia y la foto, que se volvieron virales en las últimas horas.

Nick and I told Sophia that after 1 whole month of going poop on the potty, she could pick out a special prize at Target. She, of course, picked a new doll. The obsession is real. While we were checking out, the cashier asked Sophia if she was going to a birthday party. We both gave her a blank stare. She then pointed to the doll and asked Sophia if she picked her out for a friend. Sophia continued to stare blankly and I let the cashier know that she was a prize for Sophia being fully potty trained. The woman gave me a puzzled look and turned to Sophia and asked, "Are you sure this is the doll you want, honey?" Sophia finally found her voice and said, "Yes, please!" The cashier replied, "But she doesn't look like you. We have lots of other dolls that look more like you." I immediately became angry, but before I could say anything, Sophia responded with, "Yes, she does. She's a doctor like I'm a doctor. And I'm a pretty girl and she's a pretty girl. See her pretty hair? And see her stethoscope?" Thankfully the cashier decided to drop the issue and just answer, "Oh, that's nice." This experience just confirmed my belief that we aren't born with the idea that color matters. Skin comes in different colors just like hair and eyes and every shade is beautiful. #itswhatsontheinsidethatcounts #allskinisbeautiful #teachlove #teachdiversity #thenextgenerationiswatching
