Not Just A Doll, But Inspiration Tracing Ancestors is a STEM / STEAM not-for-profit organization. Our focus is to empower and encourage underserved communities to explore  STEM / STEM fields through exposure and education. This education always starts with "history: where we were, where we are, and where we can go.  So let's talk Barbie. She, too, was designed to empower women. Here are three sources chock- full of facts that many have overlooked:  Fast Facts: http://www.barbiemedia.com/about-barbie/fast-facts.html Barbie Through the Ages:  https://www.history.com/news/barbie-through-the-ages List of Barbie's Friends and Family : https://tracingancestors.blogspot.com/p/list-of-barbies-friends-and-family.html Oh, and know there were failures along the way to Barbie's success!
