Documentary by 17 yr old recreates the "doll test" from 50s (skip to 3:20)
I will start off by saying that I am in fact racist, as is everyone other person who is alive. Everyone is racist, you will always make a decision based on how people look and where they come from. Every civilization known to mankind has shown racism. Its not a bad thing, it is human nature.
So what if they picked the white doll? It is dolls people, it has nothing to do with real life. I bet if you asked some young black girls who they would like to play with those dolls with, they would choose black girls. The fact that they picked the white dolls is based on a human archetype. The white dolls are brighter, and by extension cheerier and happier. Black is indeed a depressing color and I'm sure little girls don't want to be depressed while playing with toys.
Oh and people want to be light skinned? Yah tell that to every person in a tanning salon. The grass is always greener.
