..It's true. And we all want to see ourselves reflected in the characters we see on TV and in movies, in print and in the products we use daily. I know that there has been some controversy surrounding Disney's newest movie, The Princess and the Frog which debuts the company's first black princess. Controversy can sometimes be good, because it gives the public a voice to have conversations about what their needs and wants are, and hopefully influences and holds responsible companies like Disney. Until I see the movie I will hold off an opinion on the movie's content.
But I am super excited that Carol's Daugther has teamed up with Disney to release special edition products to coincide with the movie release. I'm glad Disney chose a quality African-American owned company like Carol's Daughter. I do think that the newest Disney princess is beautiful and I can't wait to see the movie and sample the products. What do you think?

I think you are right on target! And I love the fact that Anika Noni Rose is the voice behind the princess ;)...great choice Disney!
This is long overdue and very exciting! My girls - even my oldest - are gonna love the movie, I'm sure. I'm glad there's finally a princess movie that doesn't make me look at my girls and wonder if they're thinking they looked like so & so princess. I can't wait to sample these products as well.
