The Judge doll has a range of different skin tones and hairstyles to choose from. The Barbie dolls are wearing black robes having beautiful lacy collars with a gavel and round block. According to the company, "kids can use to help her call the room to order and make important decisions."
The intention behind choosing Barbie Judge as the Career Of The Year doll is to encourage girls to understand their potential and take better career decisions. Also, this will motivate the girls to think about the ways that can help them in protecting people's right bringing positive changes in the world.
"Our hope is that girls will enjoy playing with the dolls and imagine themselves protecting the rights of others," said McKnight to USA Today.
Barbie has also partnered with GoFundMe, the campaign to raise funds for girl-empowerment programmes in order to work for 'closing the dream gap'. A dream gap is a scenario where girls at a young age begin to think that they are incapable as compared to boys and they can't do things that boys can do.
In order to raise awareness against the dream gap and provide the necessary support to girls in achieving their dreams, Barbie launched the 'Barbie Dream Gap Project' in the year 2018. This year, after launching the Barbie Judge doll, the company is making another attempt for the girl-empowerment programmes.
Together, #Barbie & @gofundme unveil a GoFundMe page for the Dream Gap Project Fund. Recipients of this fund include the organizations @shesthefirst, @SheShouldRun, and @suwn to fuel education, leadership skills & mentorship opportunities for young girls. https://t.co/S022K1yAtQ pic.twitter.com/McmeKUNzUd
