  • WHICH DOLLS TO CHOOSE: We have invited the people we have interviewed to share videos of their dolls; so, we suggest you choose a doll that was not created by any of the people we have interviewed. We would love it if you chose dolls that had meaningful stories, e.g., a doll with sentimental value, a doll that is historically/culturally significant, etc. You may share more than one doll in a video.
  • WHAT TO SAY IN YOUR VIDEO: We have included a format for the introduction and outline order of information. We have done this for consistency. The details that you give about the doll are up to you. In case you need some topics to speak about, we suggest you speak about why you chose the doll, why you think Black dolls matter, your personal experiences with Black dolls, etc.
  • VIDEO QUALITY: Please make sure your video is well lit and your audio is easy to hear. We will not have time to clean up videos. Thank you
